Yesterday, there was a UP car near the entrance of the NE Produce Center in Chelsea. Today, there was a BNSF car in it's place and dozens of trailers to the left were pulled out from the dock to allow access. Seems like a lot of trouble for one car, what gives?

There are more than one railcar there everyday. The trucks are pulled forward everyday as a regular routine so B721 can spot the cars. They deliver an average of about 7/8 cars a day full of produce.

I know that, but this one was right near the truck entrance just outside 'King Arthurs' and 'D & D', not where they usually are. I drive by there 2 or 3 times a day on my way to Chelsea and have only seen railcars here once. There is almost always a McDonald's trailer and a few others there.

Some of the customers receive railcars less frequent than others. :(
