Re: Amtrak 355 accident-New Buffalo

Amtrak 355 accident-New Buffalo
355 has apparently been involved in an accident East of New Buffalo. Details are a little sketchy, but sounds like possible injuries with fire, possibly tow truck that was struck on fire. Lakeside Road and U.S. 12

Re: South Shore to run Frieght To Jackson???
The hopper cars in question in Niles were empty old woodchip gons being loaded with shredded tires. I don’t know if they still load there or not.

Re: Current/Former CN Facility in Edwardsburg?
It was the most recent depot. Now it is an MoW building. The flat had MoW “junk” and a crane clamshell bucket when it was still there.
