The Anderson is headed for Burns Harbors. Did she load pellets or fines? I know almost every fines load out of Silver Bay goes to Burns.

Also I see this morning the Munson is upbound Detroit showing a Marquette destination.

Arthur M. Anderson at the LS&I ore dock, Marquette 2012
Anderson, Callaway, Clarke and Munson have been infrequent LS&I visitors since the late 1980's, normally moving pellets to Toledo.

You might consider and want to check out Facebook as I'm sure there will be photos of her posted there and on any social media page once she arrives. Also, I have saved at least a Facebook page relating to the Anderson but I don't know the address off hand at this time. Hope that this helps. Also, would be interested in finding out where this rare load is headed to but, it seems that she has been trading mostly on Lake Michigan since she departed lay up and hasn't been down the St. Clair and Detroit Rivers as much!

Ah Guest you beat me to the punch as I saw that earlier and was even going to post it here for everyone to see. I do agree with you as it is indeed a very rare trip for them to be making. Wonder if any more GLF boats may be headed up there to load yet this year?
