Railfanning Monroe
Folks, I'm heading to Michigan from Oregon Friday, and wanted to do some railfanning after my reunion. I'm familiar with the CSX line from Toledo as I grew up with it in my back yard, but I was wondering what train frequency is like on the former DT&SL, as I'd like to see some CN stuff for once.

Re: Michigan G&W Loco Roster & Pre-G&W Paint Lists
To be fair, if you don't look close at the squared off 9 in the units number, it can look like an 8.

Re: New CSX Oil Trains in Central Ohio
Out here in Oregon, most UP and BNSF trains on the former SP Cascade main run DPU. Big help in the winter when the air just seems to want to leak from everywhere when you have another air compressor at the rear of the train. Enough of a difference they used to run "repeater cars", box cars with air ...
