Re: CN joins UP and Ferromex for new I/M Service

Thanks for the information David. We will soon find out. I guessing Q116 will carry the containers if that is what they still call it.

No one is saying is this a new train across Michigan or containers added to existing trains.

Re: GDLK Operations

There is also a line relocation in Kalamazoo in the works if plans are to follow thru. That would be the removal of the GR&I diamond and moving all traffic over to the line at BO and reconecting somewhere north of BO.
