Re: Hamilton/Allegan Abandoned ROW Q&A

GLC Commuter Stock

What is the status of the small fleet of commuter cars GLC stored on the north edge of Cadillac?

CSX Q327 tonight had seven double decker passenger cars at the end of its consist (February 1). Same cars?

Word was they were headed for Nashville, TN.
