After setting out the 19 hoppers at Shepherd, they continued north to Clare where they met the Cadillac crew. They shuffled cars around for a few minutes, spotted the 3 plastics hoppers, and traded trains with the Cadillac-Clare turn. The Cadillac crew took the remaining 22 cars north. The Owosso crew finished up their work by 12:30 and headed south.
