Train action in Clare

Ok well we all need a relief from seeing two engines too much, like the new GP38-2s that the GLC leased. But the TSBY geeps live tho. Just spotted #394 along with #390 tonite switching 7 cars out of the Poly Pavillion. So for all you GP35 fans and TSBY fans alike, they're still rumbling. 8)

Action in Clare

#389 and #392 made an daylight appearance today in Clare to switch the Poly Pavillion. They happen to brought a few flat cars with them(probably had pipes on them that were unloaded last week) and afterwards set them with the 4 bay hoppers that had been switched out. But to my astonishment #392 had ...

Are railroad supervisors spying on our sites?

It seems lately with a certain shortline of ours has gotten some attention. Since the coffee thread posting by Mike D. Shep, it seems the GLC has become unfriendly. My fiance heard from a friend of hers that no one can go on the Owosso property to sign a release form to take pictures. I think GLC is...

Actually from researching the map, its the old GTW M.A.L. line, it still looks pretty visible. If you look at it closely it looks like a very thin line, with a bridge still in place, then it ends at Whitmore Lake road, I can't find the rest from that point, unless the vegetation grew over the line, ...

I happen to notice something on the map which Owl posted a link to. Is that old roadbed running next to the tracks then next to M-36? It looks like it use to be an old industrial spur.

Well the jokes on me, the engineer that told me this pulled a fast one on me :roll:, plus tonite 385 and 390 had some trouble of their own. 385 had a not so good sound to it and 390 was spewing oil all over the place. Time for their turns at the shops.

Railroad mailing addresses

I'm about to start writing letters to railroads in hopes of applying to become a conductor. I was hoping if anyone had the following mailing addresses for NS, CN, CSX, and Lake States. Any replies to this would be appreciated!

Notice to TSBY fans!!!

Just got word that all the GP35s will be gone soon. GLC is making a purchase on GP38-2s. So get a lot of pics while you can, cuz when they're gone, they're history!

Grand Rapids questions

a friend of mine recently moved to G.R. to go to college, and was wondering where to see the GR&E at the best time and place? Best place and times to see any CSX trains leaving? Best place and times to see any NS action out of Hughart yard?

Any responses to this will be appreciated!
