They left one load at Amerihart.AANscaleRunner wrote:GLC ran north from Cadillac today around 0900. 2 empty centerbeams and a string of lp tanks currently sitting behind Family Video in the North Yard.

Looks like they made a trip to Petoskey judging by the 10 or so covered hoppers and 3 lp tanks behind Family Video in the North Yard.

MQT Z151 heading back north. 3408 is leading based on earlier sightings, and has a nasty horn: must be fouled. Blowing for 6 mile sounds like.
