It’s cool to see a new customer. Nice work.

Actually this customer has been there for a long time, located between Vidal St. and Lasalle Line:

As for new customers though, there were those short 3-bay silver procor hoppers being unloaded near the OWS carshop in Sarnia Yard (Marc Dease recently caught a transfer with two behind the power) that I haven’t seen before. Actually there used to always be 2&3 bay Winchester & Western hoppers being unloaded there, but I haven’t seen those in a while, and the hoppers that used to be trans-loaded behind the station have been gone for a couple years as well. There were 4 gondolas on this train, interesting. Also the dockside industrial park is continuing to expand building a massive storage yard.
