Did all 17 cars make it to Petaluma?  I assume that is 7 cars from Schellville + the 10 at Burdell...

I watched it crossing the Petaluma River bridge yesterday so I guess all 17 made it.

The "Burdell 10" are next to the hopper cars on...wait for it...Hopper St. I did a census of sorts. I counted 28 or 29 grain cars in Petaluma today. 4 @ H&B, 8@ Dairyman's (7 out front, one in back), 4 Park siding,2 ore 3 @ Petaluma Poultry.  No sign of 2009.
