3 cars a week is easily doable. 1st 3 are on the interchange track now awaiting pickup by Southern Railway.

Ken

Can your Kubota shipper use some of the 25+ Kubota loads I got down here? My yard's nearly full! Kubota ships out like 5 loads a day.

Still awaiting a customer for the foam insulation, wood chips and asbestos.

JPowell.
Bailey Steel has 100 car loads of continuous rail and 20 car loads of slag for ballast. We are based in northern Californai. How many car loads of each do you need.?

[Noah Hofrichter]

Brad, I will take you up on that offer of Pulpwood! Can you do three cars a week?

JP, I can supply you with a unit train or two of Ballast if you need it. We load about five to six cars and hour, so let me know if you are interested and how many cars you need(Up to around 50 per train, as that is all the cars the ARK has for ballast, and that includes borrowing some from the WSOR. So after that just tell me how many trains), and I’ll give you an ETA. Sorry I can’t help on the rail part though.

All -
HELP!

I am in need of Continous Wield Rail for the new yard tracks here. (Fictionally speaking) CSX approached us about taking over the yard, Intermodal and all! I'm going to have one of my reps contact some folks in CA that want to build a bigger Intermodal Yard here and see if they're interested in taking over this operation and expanding it. (end of fictional story). Either way, I'm still in need of rail as we're going to expand the storage track part of the yard. Let me know who's got waht. The sooner these can come in the better. MOW crews have already started the site prep. I'll need ballast as well.

Brad - I think these came from a vendor that does special aftermarket mods - they all have snow blowers built onto them, for clearing bike trails in the dead of winter.

[twcenterprises]

KEN!?!?!

How on earth did those Kubotas get up there?!?!?! They make 'em here in GA, and I don't remember shipping them your way. Or was this some load that shipped out while I was off-shift? Anyway, we got some 20 or so loads of 'em here and more piling up for the spring season.

Noah

Got plenty of pulp down here, how much you need?

CW

Plenty of antique cars down here. Ready for the gold yet?



Got a few loads of foam insulation waiting for a buyer, need to ship it soon.

BTW, I've been unable to login the past couple days, so I had to do a little catching up.

Bailey Steel has 18 car loads of slag for ballast or for use as aggregate in cement. Anyone need some?

In that case Fergie, how's your supply of ballast? I got a huge amount of crushed slag I can put in the 20 coal hoppers I'm returning to you. And there's a whole MESS of small Kubota tractors with snow removal attachments sitting on the Locust Point pier, on special crates designed for stacking in boxcars - ya think people in your region could maybe use a few of them?[;)]

inch - those wire coils are ready for you when your gons arrive here.

CW - 15 empty coal hoppers [the bottom-opening type] are sitting on the interchange track for you, pick 'em up anytime!

Railroadyoshi:
How many car loads of produce and tank cars of gasoline do you need. We are ready to ship.

The trains are running, shipping and receiving is busy, this is a great way to base operations.

Aluminum ?!? I can do one better Carbon Fibre Composite.... Are you interested?

Ken: I hate running empty cars fling something in'm and I can trade them later.

Inch: I can supply three loads salt cod fish dried per week. Boil off the salt fry up some porks scraps and onions and we're talking a killer feed of Salt Cod and Pork Scraps!

[Anonymous]

Inch,

I will like to take in your:

2 Hoppers Ag Lime
1 Horse Feed
1 Cat food, One dog food
1 Pallet load

Agreed on the rock/coal situation.

Ken, Using my hoppers on the unit train headed your way, give me any you can spare, they will be returned with coal for export on your curtis bay pier.

[Anonymous]

Inch - Sounds good, I gotta get my hands on whatever scrap I can. And - what a coincidence! - my billet mill was just brought back online, so I can get those dozen loads of 14guage wire coils to you within a few days.

[inch53]

KENL ; 2 gon loads out early Fri for sure. The boys are trying to find some good help, if they get lucky, we can jump it to 3 cars a week. CAN you provide the 14 ga wire coils and racks for the return. Also there may be some crushed cars next week, 10 to 12 loads to start if you want them.

CW ; if your short of hopper cars , i can send your white rock on some of our lease cars. And you can send them back with the coal. What ever works best for you

mike

[Anonymous]

Inch - I'm ready for that scrap anytime you want to ship it.

Fergie - Are those trees coming in boxcars? If so, should I send them straight back to you after unloading, or spot them at Locust Point yard (Port of Baltimore) to accept any incoming sea traffic from GDRMCo that's headed your way?

CW - If you still need hoppers, I can use Bethgons for my coking coal traffic and free some up for you. Let me know. BTW- On the sugar, a labor dispute at Domino has suspended production indefinitely, better get whatever you can from Luc.

[inch53]

KATHEY N CHUCK ; sounds great on this end. Will have enough cattle feed bag an ready on arrivial. figure 12 hour turn around back to you at least
I think FERGIE has a fish proccessor, maybe I can get some dried fish scraps off him, most likely send it in pink CARS though

Forgot earlier, STILL NEED BONE MEAL bagged at least 1 box car a week. Later on they can take it in bulk, as their storage tanks aren't up yet

[sunsetbeachry]

TO ALL;

...We use Portland, Or. as our west shipping point and ship all BEST WAY which is termenolgy for the shipping industry for " whatever " 'unless I get told who to use and where to interchange, that is how my shipments will go out. I just don't know which roads to use. We use GNSF for all points N.S.&E.
.........Have not set up Asain shipping as yet but all commodities go out in containers.

........................TUESDAY 13:30
Medical supplies are despertly needed all over Asia. All shipping charges for this traffic is free. Also all containers are supplied free for the asking. We are asborning all loading and longshoreman fees also shipping by BNSF is also.


.....Inch
We use all scraps for crabbing, no crabbing yet so 2 loads are on treir way and could yiu make that cattle feed, bagged on return.

[railroadyoshi]

Sierrarr, Idyllwilde Farms will definitley be needing your one extra produce car. However, the Gas Stations around here, especially Concord/Maynard Oils are really getting in need of Gasoline.

Inch, bagged or unbagged, either way. Erickson Grains will handle either, they can bag, but pre bagged lessens up their chores, they just stick on their own label and sell it to the waiting animals!

[inch53]

CW ; 2 loads scrap going to you Thu. for FERGIE. Saving the rest for KENL if he wants it
Will ship white rock back to you on the 10 coal cars.
Every thing else has arrived and is beening delivered. Will be Fri. before loaded up, rounded up and sent back to you.
Should be late Sun. or early Mon. for arrivial to you

I still need ;
dried meat and fish scraps bagged
Soy bean meal bulk
1 tank car each gas and desiel
2 cars propane
2 cars fuel oil
We think winter has set in
1 dried mollasase bagged

ON HAND TODAY ;
1 car load pallets
2 cv hoppers ag lime
15 tanker cars of crude oil
4 car each of cattle or hog feed
1 box car car horse feed
1 box car each of dog or cat food

Of course things change from day to day so check back

BURWRM ; cattle went out to you last night. There may be 2 loads of hogs this week with the market up farmers more willing to sale. Have you had a chance to check with KAHN meats on the meat scraps

KEN L ; boys got the oilfield scrap, so there'll be 2 loads Fri. if you want them. Do you make coils of 14 ga. mild steel wire?? I have a company asking that makes dish washer baskets.

LUCT ; cv hopper arrived last night. We'll get it headed back tonight or first run in the morning with cattle feed

CW ; could use 10 cars of coal this week, if you have any left. ship 3/4 white rock back. Have to check on what else is going on
Do you want the 2 loads of mixed scrap to bridge up to FERGIE

**POUNCE** Got 'em - send them my way please!

What a coincidence, my steel mill happens to also be a merchant ingot distributor! I'll need a gondola for every 2 ingots so I can place them directly over the trucks. Another possibility: Send the scrap, then I can send some of the ingots back in your gons.

Paul - go ahead and send the Nelson, then I can route a few of Fergie's coal drags to the Curtis Bay caol pier and load her for the return voyage.
---
GDRMCo - I'll ramp up production on the coils. Maybe also, SierraRR could make up some of the difference and route his coils thru the Port of Baltimore? And, once the Great Lakes freeze over, I may need to get iron ore from you as well since Paul's vessels will be laid-up for the season.
---
Fergie - We can use 6 carloads of your Christmas trees here in the Mid-Atlantic.

[GDRMCo]

Hey guys. The auto mfger needs about 80 coils a day, which equates to around 27 carloads. Also if you need more iron ore we can offer 300 a day.
Mitchell

[Paul W. Beverung]

Ken: The Paul W. Nelson will be loading on the 30. It will be getting 8760 long tons of specular hematite of about 56% iron. We have a standing order for coal for the mines in the area. Could you back load the Nelson?

We should be able to ship for another couple of weeks. It all depends on the weather. This last storm hasn't hurt the loading any. If the ice should get to thick we'll have to shut down.

[Noah Hofrichter]

CW, your traffic report looks right on for me.

The Local Lumber Company in Rivermoor, WI is still looking for 3-5 car loads a week of Pulpwood. They can ship out the same amount of Finished lumber then. Any takers?
