L515 (CN 5340) pulled 2 loaded scrap gons and 1 loaded baled paper box from GLR in Fraser at 9:40, and pulled 1 loaded box from Chrysler in Mount Clemens at 10:20. Had some tanks for CargoFlow, and a dozen or so loads of lumber for Nolan and a long string of loaded gons from DCon as well. Will work Conrail interchange and East Yard on the way to Pontiac. Manifests have been held until evening the last view days due to major track work between Chesterfield and South Haven.
