Re: Rapido at Riders
From a Rapido post on Train Orders there were about 60 people in attendance, more than Rapido expected. Apparently, several layouts set up outside.

Rapido at Riders
Did anyone attend the Rapido bus tour event at Riders Hobby Shop in Flint Wednesday? How was the turnout? Any thoughts or observations?

"L303-18 had to wait at Lake Odessa for someone to clear up their track authority before he could proceed eastward. He had copied his EC1 for Lake Odessa to Ensel at 13:56"
Thank you.
Thank you.

L303 by Lake Odessa at 1407. Usual running time between defect detector Clarksville and Lake O is 10 minutes. Any idea why it took 30 minutes today?

Re: Just a question - CSX Grand Rapids to Indianapolis train
In 2004 CSX ran Q337 & Q338 to and from Indianapolis. I believe the routing was GR-Toledo-Marion-Indy. Q337 ran to Indy and Q338 came from Indy. This was during a hectic time for CSX in Michigan following the closing of Stanley Yard in Toledo on April 1st. During this time there was at least one Q31...

Moving west, when did American Pipe in Alto start receiving pipe by rail? Also when did inbound propane begin to be delivered in Alto?

Re: Lake Odessa Twin City Foods
Thanks Jetlink. When I moved to Ionia in 1972 it was the Lake Odessa Canning Company. I remember that because there was a derailment in front of the facility in the early-mid 70’s. I remember an article with photos in The Ionia paper.

I always thought they were a regular user going back many years, even before Twin City Foods but looking at a few profiles there is a gap in service. A track profile updated to 1974 shows a track into an unnamed industry on the north ...
