Gregg's next stop is dancing with the stars!
A great photographer can make a great photo out of any kind of light from any angle at any time, life is not a studio! There is no such thing as bad light.

You lost me after "all powers that be..." What did you say after that?

That's a bit freaky, Gregg. I think I'm going to run the other way the next time I see you coming. :lol:

Nah..................

JT,
"All powers that be in Troy, please answer my questions....NOW!!!!!!!"
Troy is where the CN Dispatchers are.....they line up all the trains through Durand, and thus, are CN's Michigan "Powers that be".
Also, I didn't just decided to do this on my own....they made me do it!! :)
But it worked!!! We had two show up shortly after that video was taken.
I think I'm going to run the other way the next time I see you coming.
That would be a wise choice.... :) :lol:

Sorry for the late response, but it was great to finally put a face to the names from the board; nice to meet everyone last Saturday, I really enjoyed myself. I feel bad, however, that I missed seeing Gregg's dance in person... on second thought, after viewing the video, maybe I should count my blessings! Just kidding, Gregg! Good to meet you, and thanks for organizing this get-together!

Not only did Gregg's dance work at the recording time, but someone played the recording back when a bunch of us were standing on the Lansing Road overpass at the north end of the HESR yard waiting for the coal power to come out and not 5 minutes later they began heading in our direction after 45 minutes of waiting. :):)
