Southbound Michigan Shore at Hayes St, lots of those new gondolas in tow. Looks like a long train.

GRE left Lowell WB with 5 cars at 12:45pm. Did not see them arrive, but the town is full of hoppers.
Car # 108648 and 116489 for a couple. 115681 is still there. Verified the car#.

Re: Shortline Updates October, 2020
Are the reporting marks above the number CP or SOO? I think that might be why RDD’s trace didn’t work. The number should be SOO 115681 if I remember my CP covered hoppers correctly.Plannerdad wrote: ↑Mon Oct 05, 2020 1:13 pmGRE left Lowell WB with 5 cars at 12:45pm.

Good point, the cars are all CP, but anything CP originating in the US may be DBA SOO.

Re: Shortline Updates October, 2020
CP has hoppers with both CP, SOO and DME reporting marks, for what its worth.

Re: Shortline Updates October, 2020
This is a heads up
Z627 should run today from Muskegon and pick up MMRR 2170 and swap cars. If there schedule is like last week that is
MSRR Z627 went south this morning (EDIT)
