I’ve noticed that too. NS brings in blocks of frames as high as 20 sometimes which is quite a sight. I know Wayne Industries gets a ton of coils on a daily basis. Does MAP get coils directly or do they go next door and then get brought over to the plant somehow?

FCA is loaded at the ramp in Woodhaven on the Dearborn Sub. Ford is loaded at The two ramps in Flat Rock and the facility at Rouge. There's Broncos and Rangers loaded there in Woodhaven too, I see them all the time. Awesome. Admin edit: if you have commentary towards another poster that's nothing t...
