CPKC Mexico-bound MMX-180 was longer than normal passing through Muscatine at 0436 Sunday 5/21/23 with an approximately 5,000 foot consist comprising 49 auto racks up front (would these racks be empties?) followed by 14 wells of mostly double stacked Schneider containers.

Yes all or most of the racks would be empty.

While the business south of KC might be better, so far the traffic out of Chicago (Canada) doesn't seem to support running these trains for much longer as profit can't be great with <20 well cars.
