As I write this, it sounds like the Elk is working the Otsego sub. From the sound of the horn it appeared they were heading westbound.
Trails to Rails. Put the track back.

JAIL made a daylight run to Lansing today working CSX, CN, Padnos, multiple transloads and RSDC. 821/1751 on the NB run and surprisingly, 1751 led SB, much to the chagrin of everyone that missed it.
