Re: Shortline Train Location Updates - January 2024
Based on the signal arrangement entering the yard (R/Y), I’m pretty sure there’s an IORY train inbound to Flat Rock as of 3:05.

Years ago the Friday train from Bay City would park in Durand until Sunday then return to Bay City with the weekends interchange traffic from GTW/CN. I don't recall when they stopped that practice.

I checked the grade crossings in the Holland area and can confirm that this is an accurate report.GRHC wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2024 11:24 amField report: 01/13/2024 @ 11:23 The Hamilton Northwestern is inactive.

Z151 all held up between 6 mile and lamoreaux in comstock park. 11 overhanging branches and 2 trees between these two roads, chainsaw is running out of gas.
According to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible.

That's neat. As I understand it, they made this run to bust some snow and ice off the rails.AARR wrote: ↑Sun Jan 14, 2024 10:39 amYears ago the Friday train from Bay City would park in Durand until Sunday then return to Bay City with the weekends interchange traffic from GTW/CN.
