RJ Corman is switching out some hoppers in Celina today. They have 3 boxcars,
4 gons of scrap metal, and some plastic pellet hoppers depending on how many they pick up or drop.

Also looks like they are going to do a small tie project this spring as there are a handful of ties along the line.

Wife heard a train trough Celina at 11:30am today. There was a unit oil train on way to lima yesterday. Anyone know if it was going into storage?

If the unit oil was on the CF&E, it was a run though for NS. I haven't been up there lately, but if it's parked in the yard by the refinery, then there is a chance it is storage.

The train ran to lima via NS through Findlay and Beaverdam. It has apparently been stored in on Rj Corman Southwest of Coldwater based on posts on other sites.

I might venture over that way tomorrow to see if I can confirm.

Heard via the radio that another is coming today. Is/was at Fostoria when I heard the conversation. Apparently the crew doesn't have enough time ( or possibly not qualified ) to bring it to Lima. Sounded like it may get picked up by Corman today or more likely tomorrow.

The tanks made it to Lima at some point. Corman has it now. Tied down no crew between buckeye and Shawnee roads. 1 locomotive on each end. If the line isn't flooded you can bet this will go west of Coldwater today.

Supriseingly Rj Corman ran the storage train to Coldwater today. I didnt hear it go to Coldwater but did hear it return through Celina around 11:45 this morning.

After running the storage out west they came back to Celina, picked up some cars and went back west to switch Accutech. I think they were cut off from Coldwater about 5 days

Rj Corman ran through celina tonight. They had one center beam car of lumber for Coldwater. It appears that they left locomotive in Coldwater for the night.

The storage tank cars have been pushed down past Township Line Rd. There would be room for one more trainset of storage cars if needed.
