Are they different from a GALPIT in any way?

My guess is the GALPIT only has coils from the Gary, IN mill and possibly the Ecorse, MI mill. The STLPIT probably has coils from the Granite City, IL mill, either exclusively or with coils from another mill.

Does BNSF interchange with CN in Galesburg?
