2 MP15AC's with cars for Paraco were in AH siding yesterday afternoon, and seemed *very* tied up - not idling, powered down. First thing this morning Paraco was unloading LPG.
Anyone know the story here? Did the train spend the night in AH siding?

GP38-2's #261 and 268 seen last night at Posillico picking up empty stone cars at about 7:20 PM. Probably were going to pick loads from Coastal but I couldn't stick around.
261/268/159 left Coastal westbound with 29 loads of C&D about 8:45 PM last night. Coastal's tracks were pretty much emptied out except for what looked like two empties in the darkness. Funny thing I saw the outbound cars to CSX at 6:45 AM this morning and in addition to cov. hoppers and boxcars there was a long string of loaded C & D cars. Hmm...
