Re: CSX Train Location Updates - Sept 2024
Something big will soon be coming or going from Zeeland. Erickson’s rigging is starting to stage equipment along the Van Den Bosch spur for a heavy lift. In the past, these have been transformers from the Zeeland Co-Energy plant.
+1 covered hopper on the Plastcore spur which arrived in the last day or two.
