Re: CSX Train Location Updates - June 2024
Keep an eye/ear out for a U313 on the Plymouth Sub tonight. 86 cars of stone, some for Lansing and the balance for Grand Rapids. Detroit can’t handle to cars so they’re running it all as a unit train from Walbridge instead. I think it’s been almost 9 years since the last stone train ran up here!
