Re: Flat Rock Yard
Anybody see any gondolas on the right side of I-75 (heading North) with a couple of switches in them? It was about 2 weeks ago.

I was wondering what the tank cars at 18 Mile Rd and Van Dyke road are for? They have been there forever at that building with the big Ford sign by 18 Mile and Van Dyke.

Re: Traffic on the Orion Spur
There was a little sand on the tracks that was pushed aside on a road that i cant think of the name. But the Yard said on the entrance road "FDIC Property No Tresspassing" and it has a for sale sign on it. Like you said i dont know what they are going to do when it picks up again with the yard gone.
