CSX GRE Train Location Update 12-11-07

[Raildudes dad]

GRE crew on duty. 3 lumber boxes and a covered hopper from CSX, a couple boxes and a couple tanks? from NS. Looks like no further than Ada unless there's a bunch of King empties to retrieve. Saturday it looked like Van's was moving product from the Meijer's warehouse to the Turner warehouse. I'm just guessing because I didn't follow the truck all the way A good source told me that Van's intended to run both rail locations but Meijer's ended the lease.
