Re: GLC Train Location Updates - March 2024

Not a train location update, but a location update on GLC.

The main crossing in Alba at US-131 is being upgraded from Crossbucks to Cantilever signals. It appears they are being mounted on their bases today.

Re: CSX Locomotive Roster News, Updates & Information Thread

Any updates on the YN2 count as of the beginning of the year? There are currently 316 units in YN2. Quite a fair amount more already at Erie for rebuild. 121 of these are older GE's now all stored perhaps never to return, leaving around 180 YN2 units still operation. On a side note, the latest CSX ...

Re: Hamilton Northwestern Railroad Co.

They do own a decent chunk of land there in Fillmore at the Fillmore Rd crossing. Looks like the local farmer has crops on some of their land, and a nearby house has a small building on their property too. Guess we'll see how large the transload gets as time goes on. I wonder why the railroad owns ...

CN says goodbye to Baraga

Sounds like CN is pulling the plug on the mothballed section of railroad between L’Anse and Baraga. Per a post on the YooperRails group on Facebook the town was notified last month. How long has it been since anything even went to Baraga? 10-15 years maybe? Wondered why the line wasn’t offered to Wa...
