2 loaded beams at biewer and 3 empty pole cars. Couldn't see viking 1028

Leaving Cadillac for Clare at 1120.

Not 100% sure, but sounded like northbound out of Cadillac around 1030.

1 beam car to be picked up at biewer. I couldn't see viking. Yesterday the Marion siding had a covered hopper added to the north end. Today the siding has been cleaned out from the north end. 1252

Sure as heck wasn't TC. Tracks were snowcovered all day. I would've noticed too, since I'm in a building next to the tracks with a window open.

GP35 #392 is in the Cadillac pool right now.

GLC hi rail was in TC today as well as a pickup with a plow (though we've lost most snow in TC, sounds like areas like Kingsley still have enough where they showed back snowbanks from crossings. So betting on a train Friday up here.

TC bound with lumber out of Cadillac at 0845.

Update: Currently along Keystone Rd at 1040.

I'll be going to downtown TC in a little while. I'll watch for them. Thanks.

Past the Career Tech Center on Parsons road at 1:42. Headed back to Cadillac.

Turned onto River Road at 15:35-ish. Should be in Kingsley around 4:00

Train working the ithaca bean plant at 2137. They had the engines separated and it looked like maybe a mile of cars. 1unit at the switch and the other way across the field towards Owosso. All I could make put was hoppers

OSTN running today. Caught em entering into Durand at 11:35. Power (didn’t see which units) were elephant style so they will be running LHF northbound. Expected to go to Howell.

Leaving Cadillac for Clare at 0915.
