Re: Where Is It?
Very good. Kalamazoo heading west. They have turned off the main and would be going to the old freight house across from the depot of the South Haven Branch. My bet based on the number of cars is out the South Haven Branch.

Re: CN Lake Orion Sub - The end finally???

Re: INE acquires pair of SD40-2's.
No it's life. GM has more money than me but I don't get free use of a car. I have a better job than my neighbor but I don't give him a car to use.

Re: Where Is It?
It was the Chicago and Alton until it was merged into the GM&O in the 40's. Then merged into the IC. IC sold it to the Chicago Missouri and Western in the 80's. Bankrupt in a year CMNW sold this portion to Southern Pacifc and it's now part of UP.

Re: DC-AC traction questions
Where does the sound come from on the AC current locomotives? The noise is primarily due to movement and vibrations within the motor caused by the mechanical forces the magnetic fields create. When we think of electric motors in simple terms it is easy to envision the mechanical forces as rotating ...

Re: Chebanse, IL
Ah the flashing yellow was a southbound indication mounted on the same mast as the northbound yellow over red. It would be an active signal. You were looking at an advance approach to the red at
siding north of Ashkum.

Re: Chebanse, IL
Flashing yellow is a common indication. CN uses it on the ex-GTW even where new signal equipment has been installed. What you will see along the IC is two heads where most roads are using three. My assumption is the IC had been a frugal road and two heads cost less than three. It just a matter of le...
