McBain run today from Cadillac. Ran to Petoskey yesterday.

AARR south thru Ann Arbor at 08:35 with a loaded grain train off of GLC. This is a CSX-system grain train from The Andersons in Oakley. An NS one off of the MMRR/Breckenridge is the one that derailed in San Yard Wednesday afternoon.

Curious if people know if the mainline is up and running thru Owosso.

They certainly haven't had good luck with grain trains and derailments lately.

San Yard looked clear this morning,390&393 were working the yard around 10:30am. Several Cadillac cars taking up multiple tracks waiting to go north also.

Sb working the Ithaca bean 1638

Appears to have been a 1500 (or thereabouts) call time for Cadillac today. Wife saw them moving around 1530. I'm assuming a Clare run today. I had already left town for the day.

Nb working the Ithaca bean plant. Good size train. 2 possible traverse city loaded beam cars. Watch for them in Cadillac tomorrow if they aren't bound for Clare. 2012

GLC just arrived into TC with 2 lumber loads at 8:00am. Super early, or super late.

Returned to Cadillac with one empty centerbeam approximately 1315. They did not work Beacon.

Ran to Clare yesterday shortly after midnight. Returned to Cadillac before 0800. Ran to Elmira in the afternoon/evening. Was told track work is going on between Lake George and Rosebush. So this wonky schedule may be going on for a while.

Wonky schedule took a hit. Currently switching McBain. (1115)

Depart McBain for Clare at 1510.

Train is currently in tc

TC run only went to Amerhart again, 393 and 399. Very slow moving train headed back towards Cadillac, they just went over Garfield.

Wrong, KingsleyRailFan, they went to Beacon first. At least one of the two loads pulled

And you mean Garfield Avenue in TC, headed back to TC. As opposed to Garfield Road in Kingsley. They are literally leaving TC now with 3 cars.

Ostn lined nb Pitt to Durand following e251. 18:20

When I saw them cross Garfield in TC, they only had the two lumber cars that they'd taken to Amerhart, same when I saw them pass by going toward Amerhart on the work cameras. They must've picked up the Beacon car back up on their way out of town, as it was not there when I saw them.

OSTN SB pulling into Durand and using the PH Wye for headroom at 10:21 w 383/329 f/r

390, 393 and 399 left Cadillac for Clare approximately 1730.

399, 393 and 390 into Cadillac at 1200. Long train, mostly McBain cars.
