GRHC - you know every night I can imagine he is in front of his computer screen sitting in his underwear swearing profusely and drinking Blatz beer combing the RailRoadFan website for grammatical errors.

They rolled into Plainwell around 6:30ish. I only got to see the last 9 cars crossing Miller Rd. At least we know it's longer than 8 cars. I heard a bit of radio traffic and from that was able to conclude that 4189 was one of the engines.
Trails to Rails. Put the track back.

MQT road freight tied down in the usual Friday spot northbound north of Grant with 30-something cars. Power is 3408, a yellow geep, 3406, and the BSRR SD40-2. 🤞 they do a Sunday run up to Baldwin and back!
