Re: Shortline Train Location Updates - January 2024
Grand Elk hath arrived in Byron Center, northbound, 4 locos with 43 cars at 10:01pm. Looked like either a lite loco or MOW cleared the crossings earlier in the day today on a northbound run.
Went back south at 2:40am. 4 locos, middle two were 4225 and 4190. Probably 40-60 cars.

Grand Elk north passing 54th Wyoming area at 10:11pm, horn on the leader sounds funny from 3 miles away.
Didn’t hear any train horns all day today nor yesterday, yet again, I probably had my music volume at 50%

Re: Shortline Train Location Updates - January 2024
I didn't know ELS could switch Billerud. Did they get the contract recently? Or did you mean L-P in Sagola?
