Come on EW that'd make sense and as we know on this board posts that make sense aren't allowed or encouraged

Can't remember off-hand.... When was it converted to 3' from 4' 8.5"?

My favorite was coming around a corner to see a 150ton capacity crane outrigger set up IN THE GAUGE! Their excuse.... They had protection the day before to do the lift but it got cancelled due to weather so they simply figured they had protection the next day.

Imagine that... Another failed Railmark venture. As much as I am for people following their dreams how many times does one fail before they give up and realize maybe just maybe this ain't the business for them?

Make sure you're early..... I'd say 8:47:53 PM... Don't wanna miss it!

Make sure you don't miss it!!!! Set a tent up at that exact crossing 3 days in advance and then wait for the train on the 26th. If you're there for the days before you'll get a rough idea the time and you wont miss the train on the 26th!

OMG really MQT1223?! He has a FB!? Im years behind!!!.... Or I can talk to him in the chat box like I did earlier.....

Hate to bump this up.... Oh wait... No I don't haha but i'll be in Michigan next week on vacay and would love to meet up with my Michigan peeps that I haven't seen in a while.... Just putting the bug out there that we should meet up one night for pizza and then maybe some cow tipping errr drunk cow ...

GLC did not sell their dining car. It was loaned to LSRC for a run with the lettering sans reporting marks blanked out to avoid confusion on whose railroad was operating the trip. The car is back in Owosso with the rest of the GLC fleet. Thanks for the info, BK. But aside from us, does anybody real...

If they bought it in 1982 from Amtrak do you think quite possibly that standards and practices may have changed? OR that they sold it cause it wasn't compatible back in the day and were getting rid of useless or non-standard equipment.....

I've seen 286k loaded cars plus numerous heavy loads use the flange bearing diamonds. 1225 has traversed it along with 765 with no issues.

Sub-contractor that put it in? Ummmm.... Didn't know CN's own maintenance of way crews were sub-contractors. CN replaced their own diamond with their own crews. As for the $10k per axle charge... Smoke up the butt comment. There is a charge for using the trackage rights as laid out in the agreement ...

Tell me again how strong the Ford frame is.... http://o.aolcdn.com/dims-shared/dims3/GLOB/legacy_thumbnail/800x450/format/jpg/quality/85/http://o.aolcdn.com/dims-shared/dims3/GLOB/crop/1183x712+34+45/resize/628x378!/format/jpg/quality/85/http://o.aolcdn.com/hss/storage/midas/555aec6e868eb6120f310793...

Electra Townies are awesome bikes! Gonna get one of the Attitude cruisers in a month or so.

After seeing AARR's post about wanting to railfan the Rails to Trails areas of Michigan it got me thinking.... What does everyone have for foot powered bikes. I know Z, AARR and a few others ride so let's see them! Here's my two... 1. Dyno Roadster with some new rims https://scontent-lga.xx.fbcdn.ne...

Im off and can be there the last weekend of June thru the 4th of July weekend.

If you weren't informed of it and missed it there's prolly a reason.... You werent invited.

Not being from the GR area.... Where is said tipping of cow and is it's ice cream any good?

Your nonsense makes me laugh

As does yours....

Better question would be if this group can't pay to move and restore the Frisco engine they already have where is the funding coming from for this venture?
