MMRR pickup at the GRE office, might be the Alma crew. Only 2 inbound bulkheads on NS, can't see if CSX left anything overnight. Amtrak, the usual. 1995Impala reported the MQT box at Van's on Turner - 1st car I've seen there. Looks like a two spot covered and 2 or 3 spot uncovered long dock.

I saw it the other day, too. Would have stopped to take a picture, but I didn't have my camera with me.

Heard that police for CSX were inspecting a tankcar for/from Heinz today in Holland at Waverly.. some NATX car but didn't get the number... can anyone check to see if there is a tankcar waiting to go to Heinz, or if this is one that was just picked up... inquiring minds(JT) would like to know.

D801 went south with empties from West Olive, running as E95029..

I might have missed it, but I didn't hear Y121 over by Heinz today - unless I missed it...

Didn't see anything special in the yard - there are some tank cars there, but didn't get a real close look.

Usually they haul the car(s) to Heinz while making a pick up and delivery to Padnos - haven't heard them there yet today either - unless I missed them...

They delivered a car to Heinz on Friday the 25th at 6:30pm-ish according to a trace. I sat near the south end of the wye for about an hour until about 6:15 when Zack met up with me. During that time, they were just shoving cars around the yard. They finally came out light and from what we could tell, they were heading to Padnos for a pick up. Zack asked the engineer as he rolled slowly by if they were going to Heinz and he said no.
