Looks like a meet between the ONTN and 1225 Polar Express will have to occur unless GLC dies before they hit Ashley

Northbound thru Howell. 385 and 390 today. All grain cars. Pretty good amount of cars.

Leaving Cadillac for Clare at 1000. Did notice a loaded centerbeam in Selma Yard.

Never heard them go north.

Heard them move from Selma Yard to North Yard at 0910. Haven't heard them since, assuming northbound today.

Yes, they came thru Traverse City and on to Williamsburg about 1245. I had been coming home from Acme driving Five mile rd. that parallels the line in that area, no train just rusty tracks. I pull into my drive a mile away and I heard them come thru. probably with that centerbeam. Missed by just a few minutes. Oh well, anybody that is out and about might catch the return trip in a hour or so.

According to second-hand sources, 385 brought 1 lumber load and 2 empty gons to TC today.

2 taller gons spotted at Beacon. NSSX Maybe?

Confirmed. Someone on Facebook posted rather nice photos of the train milling about TC with the 2 tall gons and 1 lumber car.

I second that- please post here if you can with permission? I don't have Facebook and would have no clue how to search for these photos.
