Re: Great Lakes Central Updates: October 2020
GLC crew has been in Howell since 08:30 this morning and still currently there at 15:00 with 383+395+382 for power. They left 84 cars for CSX parked north of town, went to Ann Pere power light, came over on to CSX, went east of the diamond, back through the siding and out onto the main at the west end to get onto their 74 car pick up, left on the main line for them by CSX on Monday.. They backed the train south to beyond Beck Road, came back to the north end of town to get their 84 cars and returned to south of Ann Pere to wait for CSX to bring them 67 more cars. CSX arrived at 14:30 and are now waiting for another CSX train to go west before bringing the 84 cars over onto the Howell passing siding. When they leave to go back north, they will have 144 cars, all from CSX over two days.
