The Detroit Edison trains operated on the MP-UP to two destinations. Monroe, Michigan on the CN and Trenton, Michigan on the NS. They all ran with DEEX cars. To my knowledge the MP-UP power ran thru to the destination of these trains. They did not change power at Chicago. These trains were delivered to CN and NS at Chicago. My information is from the 90’s to date. I have no knowledge of how these trains were handled in the 70’s. Also during this time the coal was being loaded in the Powder River Basin in Wyoming.
