Late post. GRE returned WB around 1:00p, with 2 cars. Still a line 15 or so loads in the yard. Y297 came through around 5:30, but left no additional hoppers, from what I could see anyway.

Grand Elk north through Byron Center at 12:37pm. WAMX 4190, WAMX 4017, and 33 cars. A loaded centerbeam in there of Apollo material. Should be working Moline on their southbound run if they take the fertilizer cars back south.
Grand Elk back south at 4:14pm. WAMX 4017, 4190, and 20 cars. Very likely stopping at Moline for work.

Grand Elk Hughart Yard in Grand Rapids got a lot of cars recently. Saw one long string of 2 bay covered hoppers with 1 gondola wedged in middle and 1 gondola towards Burton St overpass (this string covered the view from the other tracks)
