Re: Hamilton Northwestern Railroad Co.
I wonder what the range is on a transload site such as this. 15-20 miles? I thought I read somewhere‘s on RailRoadFan.com that the WMI was transloading apples that were transported up to Traverse City Michigan for Gogo Squeez. So who knows what the actual range on a transload site could be. Here’s ...

Nathan, the 2 bays on MQT go to Manistee, I forget exactly what they carry, but the product is used to make roof shingles. It’s newer business from sometime in the last 2 years or so.

M326 is just now at 492 on NS, had to wait for an inspector and NS ran 327 off first. I don’t see W001 behind him as of yet.

Re: CSX Location Updates - Oct 2021
The plant has almost no stock pile on the ground and almost everything they are dumping goes right into the bunkers inside the units themselves with almost none of it going on the ground. Until recently the plant had been depleting their stock pile and hadn’t been supplying as much power due to the ...

8952’s PTC was cut out/not working last I knew, doesn’t mean it hasn’t been corrected but I don’t expect it to lead back out. Do we know if they will tie down at GJ/Wells or keep going up to West Olive? And if tying down at any of these locations will the DPU be kept on the west end or brought aroun...

Re: Cal-Chlor, Ludington
Is Cal Chlor the business that used to receive lime or was that the Dow plant? That was the Dow, now Oxy plant along the lake. To answer the original question though it is an expansion of Cal Chlor of Ludington, it has up their capacity from an 8 car full spot to 15, but that being said it has actu...

Bagwell is indeed in charge over there and I expect a lot of good changes and some that will also probably change things up that may not be liked by the railfan community. Any further information or ideas about what might be changing? Right now not much that I can elaborate on as I’m not sure what’...

Sometimes I forget that some of you kids haven't seen a Marquette grain train before. They used to do 4-6 trains a season regularly, but its been a good few years since they've done a grain train in Newaygo with any regularity. They tried one a few years back with run-through power, which didn't wo...
