Trains Magazine Article

Unread post by pbmaxno15 »

The April issue of Trains Magazine has a story written by the "switching supervisor", Frank H. Dewey, of Dean Yard in Midland. The story is about a runaway GP7 with seven cars from Saginaw Yard that is caught and stopped by the power from another train. The events occurred on December 17, 1970. Does anyone remember this event?
