I think it was mentioned in the Train Location threads. The 2 engines & a couple of cars derailed Fri morning. Everything got retailed Monday morning. I believe some track repair was needed, that was supposed to finish today, but I haven't heard whether that's complete.

Just north of the shop building in Mason. They left the power on the northbound train when they got back from Jackson.

HVRM announced this morning that they have secured enough funds to purchase the CHS power car, but it has to leave the property by September yet.
This means that the entire CHS dinner train is now officially sold.

ZFS has officially purchased the idled ethanol plant in Riga, located on the Adrian & Blissfield line. Hopefully we’ll be seeing an increase in traffic down here soon.

Truckloads of new ties being unloaded in Adrian and being placed along the tracks between the engine house and the old roundhouse. Each stack is ten across by four tall so I'd estimate around 2,000 ties are there currently.
The transload across the street was also running today loading a big rig with some dusty material (anybody know what?) out of old KCS and N de M cars.
