Counted cars on D706-13 too but did not write it down and now don't remember. Either 67 or 76, or, somewhere in between. One thing I do remember is they finally turned one of the units around on the 36+3283 set so they are now back to back after five days running elephant style

Hmmmm....that works out to be 104 cars if you're saying 296 axles was the DD39.1 report for D706-13. That's how many cars he had when he arrived at Lansing prior to starting his work there.
