GRE Ann Street yard is full of mostly hoppers, a lot of BNSF, plus at least one loaded center-beam. Since Lowell/King has unloaded most of the hoppers over the weekend, probably GRE will head east on Tuesday.

GDLK was northbound through Byron Center approx 12:20am this morning. Don't think they went back south overnight, so I'd guess a southbound run in the sun today.

PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...

Glad you enjoyed AARR and David. Shot with my cell, a Motorola Moto x4. Think it's a 12mp sensor. Got it in 2017.
