Marquette rail heading north through grand rapids at 12:57pm, as seen from 11 floors up at the county court house.
Good luck finding the train:). Probably 80-90 cars guessing.

Re: Shortline Updates May 2023
Marquette rail z151 – 23 went through wealthy street at about 3:15 p.m. He completed his crossing at about 3:25 p.m. I'm actually really excited that I finally got to catch Marquette rail. I've been trying for years and today I finally got it
Re: Shortline Updates May 2023
Marquette Rail Z151 is a very interesting train that consists mainly of SD40s with some GPs for most of their trains. I was lucky to get over 100 videos from them alone in the last 4 years or so.
