WB came back through Dexter, shortly before 5pm. Unfortuntately i wasn't able to see the power as I was in the restroom when it started by. My guess would be roughly 50 cars going WB including a decent number of tank cars as well as scrap gons.

Clear Adrian at 06:00.

FYI the NS 8100, Nickel Plate HU, is leading the final EB NS 256 road railer. It’s in Missiouri right now.

Tomorrow’s NS 255 out of Oakwood is the final Roadrailer
