Heard them northbound out of Cadillac at 0910. Most likely Petoskey way. But didn't see them.

Probably because no cars for TC in the north yard.AANscaleRunner wrote:Heard them northbound out of Cadillac at 0910. Most likely Petoskey way. But didn't see them.
Re: GLC Updates August 2018
There was/is a Beacon car in Cadillac waiting to go north (came up last Wed), another loaded at Beacon (plus switching to be done there of the TSBY hoppers), and an empty center beam at Amerhart, so I would not rule out a TC trip soon.TC railman wrote:Probably because no cars for TC in the north yard.AANscaleRunner wrote:Heard them northbound out of Cadillac at 0910.

Re: GLC Updates August 2018
FYI GLC must have been in TC yesterday- fresh flange marks and a missing center beam.AANscaleRunner wrote:Returned to Cadillac at 1810.

Re: GLC Updates August 2018
Thanks for the Beacon photos NS3322.
I heard them about 12 noon today in TC again. No chance to see what they brought up here.

Re: GLC Updates August 2018
At least a center beam for Amerhart and an empty for Beacon, plus there were 2 loads to be picked up. Not sure if they brought any more cars up for scrapping. They were doing a lot of switching at Beacon but I was not right there (next paved crossing north as I just washed my truck). Sad to see TSBY 1994 going to the scrap line (former AA box car repainted yellow/blue by TSBY to shuttle company supplies between Owosso and Cadillac for many years). So two trips to TC this week...Pixl wrote:Thanks for the Beacon photos NS3322.

Correction, just 329 without 396 came to Traverse City today. Both came up on Wednesday.TC Man wrote:At least a center beam for Amerhart and an empty for Beacon, plus there were 2 loads to be picked up. Not sure if they brought any more cars up for scrapping.

Re: GLC Updates August 2018
Will the old Ann Arbor boxcars and one old DTSL boxcar in Cadillac suffer the same fate as TSBY #1994?

Maybe GLC is storing stuff in them, therefore still in use.NS3322 wrote:Will the old Ann Arbor boxcars and one old DTSL boxcar in Cadillac suffer the same fate as TSBY #1994?
