MQT Z151 Northbound
Title:  MQT Z151 Northbound
Description:  Marquette Rail heads north across the Grand River again as the waters continue to rise. They were planning on taking the train up near Kent City, cutting off the engines and running engine light back down to Wyoming yard one last time. CSX closed the bridge Friday morning after parking a string of loaded covered hoppers on it to "anchor" it, effectively cutting off MQT, GRE, C&M and CSX's customers north of the river.
