GRE --- EB Leonard at 10:51 with one CH. There was a string of about 10 or so for King in their yard that they left behind.

If NS was bringing in the Pfizer coal, you wouldn't be seeing it in GR. I'm guessing you saw 2 open hoppers loaded with the crushed glass that they load in Hugart next to 131.
