Where is Mitchell, Michigan, and what do/did Hooker ship/receive in boxcars?
I happened to have the opportunity to sort through a lot of older (late 1970's-early 1980's) railroad paper, mostly freight bills and the like, last weekend and came across a car routed from a Hooker Chemicals plant on the west side of the state to (I think) Marysville, Michigan. I know it was a different era, but it struck me funny that Chessie would've been moving chemical traffic such a short distance like that. IIRC, the bill was marked as Hazardous as well.
Thanks for sharing your photos with us,
