We haven't brought any cars in a couple weeks, we are very slow this time of year also

Thank You.

I've noticed the CSX 731 PM from Framingham have been only 6-10 carloads.


All the Best.

The 1701 apparently got to stop shivering in her nest today. Rumor is Bay Colony was running this morning.

Where do you hear about the Bay Colony RR’s activity?

They don't run on weekends. Activity is as needed, so I imagine once these two cars
of fly ash are unloaded, BCLR will shove them down to Medfield Jct. Unfortunately we
don't get much of a head's up or any advance notice. Pure luck 99% of the time!

Is Tresca transloading the fly ash directly from the hoppers? Or is it somebody else doing the transloading? G&U / Charah Solutions has just set up a fly ash transload facility at Hopedale on the G&U Logistix property.

I was told its Tresca and has nothing to do with the G&U customer.
