Does anyone have any videos of the MAW they would mind shareing to youtube? The only videos of the MAW on youtube don't have any trains in them just the track. I know a lot of pictures are taken of the MAW but, If anyone could film and upload some videos of the MAW in operation that would be great ...

This line through BG is getting to be a liability for CSX. One good law suit and it may be all over as a through route.[/quote] :?: CSX is not going to shut a line down because of their tracks going through a collage town. I don't think anyone would have a valid lawsuit if you got hit by a train bec...

He means that he doesn't really care too much about it, he doesn't think that the engine catching on fire is sad or dissapointing. I don't either.

Oh ok whatever.

What is that supposed to mean?

This I missed! I heard about it though and boy is that a long train!

This was the point I presented to that dumb *explative* Ellen this summer in Fostoria. The town is a complete craphole, and it will never be a successful railfan park. Glad to hear you're okay, I would suggest not going back. Though I agree with you about Fostoria not being a great place for a rail...

Sorry to hear that man. I'll stick with Deshler! Nothing bad happens there!

As a railfan it would have been nice, but in it's proposed form it was not viable and would have given little to no return on investment. Send the money to somewhere where it makes sense.

Nice reply man just nice

This is a video I filmed of us operating at the Grand Rapids, Ohio Applebutter fest. Enjoy

This is a video of us running on September 11,2010 in Grand rapids shot by me. We will NOT be running that far into Grand Rapids though, we will be stopping by the bridge. Enjoy!

We will be running trips over the bridge in Grand Rapids up to route 65 and then back up until ludwig road. We will be useing Motorcars not the train to run this. Right now there will be 2 motorcars, one on each end and 4 cars with seats for passengers in the middle. It will be run in a push-pull fa...

We have not had the Bluebird in Grand Rapids since 2000. The motorcar rides will be before the culvurt so it won't affect us. Hope to see you there if you are going!

Wow sounded like you had fun! We will be giving rides soon for the Grand Rapids Applebutter Festivel. It goes from ludwig road across the bridge and ends jst before crossing 65 in Grand Rapids. I belive the tickets will be $2 one way.

I say leave it all there. Don't junk any of it. But for the love of God, get that freakin' line rebuilt and start running the Bluebird from the south side of the Maumee all the way to Waterville! They only own up to Dutch Road on the north side of Waterville. NS owns it the rest of the way in. :) W...

I thought the track was cut just south of Village Parkway in Waterville as well. No Physical Connection with the NS. Edit: Found this on Google Streetview, the rail is unattached but easily reattached, I thought there was actual rail missing on the other side of the street but the weeds are too hig...

No super detailing...it wouldn't be worth it with the ultra wide carbody the old Athearn GP35's had. Someday I'll be able to invest in some high quality motive power, for now the best power I've got is a couple Proto 2000 engines and an old Atlas C424. The Athearn blue boxes work fine for a road fr...

I say leave it all there. Don't junk any of it. But for the love of God, get that freakin' line rebuilt and start running the Bluebird from the south side of the Maumee all the way to Waterville! At this time the TLE&W has no more plans to scrap anything else. The amount of volunteers we get on a n...

Hi, At one time there were 6 cabooses listed for the TLE&W in Grand Rapids, OH: I believe that the 2 that are returning to nature in what is now a jungle are: Wood, cupola, C&O 90864 and steel, cupola C&O 903667. Two that I still list as GR are: Steel, bay window, NKP 466/N&W 557566 and steel, cupo...
