The reason for so many HBD's is because if a train leaves the siding and heads on single track, it will detect the defect before the train gets back up to track speed. And the HBD in Flint is fairly new, about 4 months ago they installed it I would like to say.
Love all class 1 railroads in USA and Canada, and short lines in michigan
