What commodities might have originated on the Ann Arbor railroad in 1956? I recently acquired an Ann Arbor boxcar and am wondering what might have originated on the AA that might have been shipped to the U.P. (which I model).

OR See Coal Creek layout http://www.modelrailweb.com/mainline/coal_creek.htm They give you become idea and image of the Toledo low level loop to upgrades to Dundee, Milan, Ann Arbor and Whitmore Lake to downgrade to Howell, Durand, Owosso "loop" to upgrade to Clare, Cadillac, Yuma high level loop then downgrades Mesick, Copemish, Thompsonville, Beulah to Elberta/Frankfort low level loop then return to Toledo. The Annie was called of the Toledo to Frankfort as "Fireball", Frankfort to Toledo as "Torpedo."
