The corn crop is reaching its full maturity as a pair of classic GMD1's limp L514 back to Chatham after working the Argis elevator in Thamesville. The crew wasn't too happy with these units as on the way to Thamesville one of them died. Seems whenever there is pair of them, one craps the bed.

    Any idea as to where the tanks came from?

    I imagine Greenfield Ethanol in Chatham.

    Myles – They were lifted in Thamesville at the elevator. Couldn’t figure out why. Could only assume transload? But there were no hoppers for the elevator there, just the tanks. The 3 hoppers on this train were from Blenheim.
    Steve – Greenfield ethanol is served by CP.

    Correct Mitch, I was wondering if perhaps they were using the interchange in Chatham again. Odd that they had tanks at the elevator.
