ANN ARBOR RAILROAD UPDATES
Re: ANN ARBOR RAILROAD UPDATES
It looked like they were grabbing high cubes.. Or at least moving them around when we saw them. (Made a move forward just locos, then came back with high cubes) But it was hard to see form such distance. There were stored tank cars as well as the train which had the auto racks. Word was they had a 90 car train waiting at Osmer two out of three of us had to go home and sleep before work today.

Ok, sounds like they are using the cement plant yard for storage. I was hoping maybe Holcim might use it as a distribution terminal and receive inbound cement but that's not the case.

Re: ANN ARBOR RAILROAD UPDATES
The Ann Arbor railroad is [edit] traversing Ann Arbor in a direction undetermined. RS3L on the leader indicates that the unit is facing south unless 2368 or 2373 have been wyed.
Edit edit* direction ascertained. SB at Hoover (for those of you who don't know AA that is by the big house aka Michigan stadium)
