Grand elk north through Byron Center at 5:53pm. Wamx 4124, wamx 4189 and 17ish cars.
Tues morning Edit: Didn't hear them go back south, so likely still up in the yard in GR awaiting the next crew.

Re: Shortline Updates September 2021
GDLK brought them 2 hoppers and 1 loaded centerbeam around 2:30 PM yesterday afternoon. Strange to see them in the daylight. Looked like the hoppers were for Amway.Raildudes dad wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 8:38 pmDidn't work today, supposed to be a 2nd in the yard with GDLK bringing 1 more tonight.Plannerdad wrote: ↑Mon Sep 13, 2021 3:40 pmGRE at Ann Street has two tracks full of hoppers and one loaded center beam.

JAIL currently in Ensel Yard. They set out two boxcars from Michigan Packaging and have a loaded flatcar of metal for Alro Steel in Lansing. Track crew is working on the switch behind Alro as this is the first car they’ve received in over three years.

They will definitely be going down today!LansingRailFan wrote: ↑Wed Sep 15, 2021 8:54 amJAIL NB at Keller Road in Holt at 8:37 Am with 1760/1758 power light.

UPDATE 12:40 PM - the depressed flat car is depressed and bad ordered. It’s left on track three on CN. Jail is still taking with them three boxcars and two empty gons for Padnos
CN local has five Empty boxcars and two loaded scrap gons. I think they also have to work Biewer and the Purina Mill
