The depressed flatcar that was in TC went south through Cadillac this morning on the GLC. Also two full centerbeams came into town this afternoon with the usual assortment of hoppers. They are currently sitting in Selma Yard.

Re: Michigan Shortline Updates May 2013
LSRC 5921 is sitting under the Wadsworth St overpass in Saginaw, MI. Possible Z127 power for tonight. HESR 800 job just arrived at the Saginaw yard and is currently switching with CORP 3838. Anyone know why the 800 job would be working so late?

GLC OSTN had the HESR 9712 Coming into Durand, the 9712 has been on the MMRR and has been swapped for the 3866, I'd guess the 9712 will either be in the Durand yard for service, or will head north on mondays 701.
GLC OSTN had 397-398-399-396 and a huge train outta Durand!

Re: Michigan Shortline Updates May 2013
Anyone know why MMRR takes GLC Alma to Durand rather than Paines to Saginaw then down to Durand? I've seen MMRR covered hopper empties go the same route then north to Saginaw for loadingEvan wrote:GLC OSTN had the HESR 9712 Coming into Durand, the 9712 has been on the MMRR and has been swapped for the 3866, I'd guess the 9712 will either be in the Durand yard for service, or will head north on mondays 701.

Re: Michigan Shortline Updates May 2013
Heard HESR 2668 coming south out of Wenona Yard and then heading east across the bridge about an hour and a half ago. Looks like there will be a southbound empty coal train tonight.

HESR 702 is on its way to Durand with CORP 3826, WGCR 9519 and HESR 2668.
Lake State 301 ran out of Bay City north to Pinconning where they tied the train down on the Huron Sub. Power was LSRC 1174 and 1169 with about 20 stone hoppers.
