They were yesterday too. or the last I knew. 34 car set out on the head end of their train, but the 36 to pick up were to go on the rear. Todays pick up was left on Main Two last night by D708.

Some of the MQT boxcars have been added to the general G&W boxcar pool. Most likely headed for the Huron & Eastern via GLC at Ann Pere.
Also could have been loads for PCA Owasso. That happened on a semi regular basis.
MQT 1092 and MQT 1175 were two of the three car numbers on this train.
