They haven't been running daily for some time now. Which way is it facing? They'll probably run tomorrow, or if it is northbound, it may not even run until Monday.bkoole98 wrote:3 hours later and MQT is still just idling here at 120th street in Grant. Anyone know when a crew will be called?

A lot of BNSF hoppers around Lowell on several tracks. Wheat trucks are starting to roll in to King, but the rail cars are not letting up.
