Re: Bridge collapse in Toledo

This collapse wasn't planned at all. The organization I work for has a shelter down in that neighborhood, and they went many days without their phones/internet because of this.

Re: Where Is It?

That's in Adrian, a siding off the NS, just north of the ADBF diamond. I've wanted to get a picture there to put here. Thanks for taking care of that for me! :P

CN is not at Alexis. The third railroad is AA.

Re: 472: CSX Trains of Monroe, MI

One note - CSX from Toledo through Monroe does NOT go to Detroit. It goes north to Carleton, Romulus, then Plymouth.

Re: SMRS

I anticipated a 3 pronged answer, and got what I figured. First, the physical condition of the track is unknown at best, because there's been no activity in years. Second, your relationship with A&B is not conducive to a healthy, working relationship. Third, it puts your status as a non-profit organ...

Re: SMRS

I'm sure I know the answer to this, but I will ask the question anyways:

Why doesn't the SMRS store some tank cars like the AA on the Saline branch? They could put some on the southern end that is still connected to the ADBF. Would help raise some funds.

Technically it's not a move, it's a location closing. Lewis St. location has been open for years.

Re: ADBF Question

So his hostile take over attempt of the SMRS was to revitalize the line and ship North. Who was he hoping to ship too. I wouldn't say it was to ship north. I believe their ultimate goal was establishing a connection with NS so they wouldn't have to push loaded cars up the grade on the connector in ...
