Jim your about on with the car count. They base there car loads on what goes down the hill over Pine Hill scale, and when busy the Hill job will bring 2-120 cars trains loaded down the hill and 2-120 emptys back to Eagle Mills. So 1 Hill job brings 240 loads to Marquette, 3 Hill jobs per day gives you 720 loads down the hill in 1 day. Hope this helps.
