It would be this video corect? : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=732Hkv30bLQ&t=9s
I've seen this also.
Back then GR #2104 and MMRR #2057 were both on the Michigan Shore Railroad as GR #3839 & CF&E #3885,
now they've separated in 2015 and reunited in GR in 2020 and re-separated again but they both have ran in MQT & GR.
I believe #2104 is back in GR now.

They dropped off a 91 loaded grain car and their normal consist today in Wyoming Yardjaykirks wrote: ↑Thu Mar 16, 2023 10:12 pmIt would be this video corect? : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=732Hkv30bLQ&t=9s

What you say Z? Is it time for Beavis yet? Does this thread suck or should we try harder?

2057 is on borrowed time, MQT is getting a new 3500 series GP38 to replace it. 2057 has been mostly out of service for the better part of 2 years now.

April Fools?
If not, Does G&W have any plans for replacing MMRR 2019 on the MS yet?

Yeah I'd say 2057 (3839) has been running for over 50 years which is a long time, which shows why it's no longer good anymore.

Unfortunately, not an April fools post. It’s worn out and has some major electrical problems they haven’t been able to fix.

Looks like MQT 3567 is the new replacement. Heritage of this unit is still unknown. It was spotted in Huron, SD last week:

Re: Mid Michigan Railroad #2057 - Grand Rapids 2020
MQT 3567 is ex-HLCX 3810/HLCX 3710/TM 865 per LocoNotes.
EMD 796326-1, 7/1980.
RRPA has it under 796236-1. I noted on the locomotive profile that this serial # might be incorrect.
