GLC today

Unread post by Josh »

Headed down to Owosso this morning with hopes of catching the petoskey trip leaving. I arived at Owosso at 8:45 and saw GMTX 2675 with 391, 393, 394 and 392 siting by the shops with the train. They left a few minutes after 9:00 with 9 coaches. Drove next up to Ashley just before the headlight came into sight, the train stoped before the middelton branch to uncouple the first 4 units which then continued onto the midelton branch and the petoskey train headed north with only one unit 392. Decided to follow the tracks down to 127 and catch the light power instead of imedeatly continuing chasing the passenger train, since i had never seen any action on this line i decided to get some shots. Caught the passenger train two more times in Mt plesant and Clare then had to head home.
