There. A post from the Choad that stands no chance of pissing people off (Except maybe PAT C. when he realizes that there isn't really any FREE BEER)!
This is not the WORST Thread, IM talking about ADDING trains. The X500 thread was the WORST!

Re: AMTK 48 & 49
They could just do a connecting train from toledo to connect with wolverine service like they used to, maybe just a couple of coaches and a cabcar, can't take more than an hour to go from toledo to detroit, and they could use the NS wabash line to do that
How ever I would love to see them bring It up the Ann Arbor R.R to ann Arbor. that would be my choice

Re: AMTK 48 & 49
Ok...why would they incur the additional expense of running a TRAINSET when the same can be accomplished by using the current bus service cheaper, and with a more reliable running time? The crew costs alone would probably amount to more then it takes to rent or charter the bus for that same trip, let alone equipment costs.ConrailMan5 wrote:They could just do a connecting train from toledo to connect with wolverine service like they used to, maybe just a couple of coaches and a cabcar, can't take more than an hour to go from toledo to detroit..
