Z15230 departed BALDWIN at 2220, with the GMTX 2648, 2635. Rumored to have a set off in Newago, a pickup for Grant, and then a Hotshot to GR.

A good number of eastern empties that leave West Olive show up at Grand Rapids...when they leave GR, they leave as N9xxxx, run all the way to the Apps, get their coal, come back north through GR, go to West Olive, drop off their load, and go back to GR, all as that same N9xxxx number.
This train says this about origin and destination: N91328 ASHLEYKAY - WESTOLIVE F GRAND RAPIDS MI GRAND RAPIDS MI

Thanks, Zack & Doc. Learn somethin' new just about every day here...
