Re: Pictures of Midland railroading in its glory days

Re: Pictures of Midland railroading in its glory days
I spent two periods in Midland one in the early 1960's (63-66) and then my teenage years (72-78) and have a couple memories. One is of two serious floods that covered the station and lumber yard next to it. Once back in the 1960's and the other in the 1980's. The other is a true Michigan memory of h...
