LSRC Flint yardmaster just told inbound Z127 to switch out the new Buick City operation after they're done yarding their train. They have 30 empty autoracks to spot.

They got back to the Ann St yard around 1:30pm. Didn't get a car count but they had at least 12-15 empty CH's with them. Mostly DJJX renumbered cars.Plannerdad wrote: ↑Sat Mar 13, 2021 12:48 pmLooks like 20 hoppers in Lowell today, that weren’t there yesterday.
