I'm not sure but I'm guessing fines. The Sykes spent a lot of time shuttling between IH and BH last season and I'm sure there was lots of broken pellets.

Coke for middle dock.

Thanks for the update! I see on AIS that's where they are unloading now.

what cargo would they be carrying from burns harbor to cleveland? surely not iron ore, perhaps coke or coke breeze

I watched the Wilfred Sykes pass eastbound under the Mackinac Bridge at 09:00 this morning on their way to Cleveland after loading in Burns Harbor. My assumption is that they will run up the Cuyahoga River to Cliffs.
The Joseph L Block is downbound from Duluth/CN for Cleveland Bulk Terminal.
The first trip for both the active CML boats are going to Lake Erie and though they have made these trips before I find it intriguing that they start the new season running routes that were once a rarity.
I think it's going to be an interesting season
