Good question Delightful Trains! Read trough the pages on this post, though nothing since October 13, 2024: https://railroadfan.com/phpbb/viewtopic ... hilit=1977

I don't think anything is being done with 394 currently! Probably sitting in Owosso! "Heritage Units" added GLC 394, along with 329 and 393 10/6/2024! I don't understand 394 being added and there are no posts yet on it! The update from 10/6/2024 H.U. states "Add the Great Lakes Central Railroad which includes the following Locomotives
Added GLC329 - Tribute to Louis P. Ferris Jr (SD40M-2)
Added GLC393 - 10th Anniversary (GP35)
Added GLC394 - City of Clare (GP35)"

You are certainly Welcome Delightful Trains! I am also glad to have photographed TSBY NW2 in 2019, among the few other times! I hope engine #1977 is being restored and will operate in TSBY colors again! Man, the GP35s are nice! Now some may be turned into upgraded GP35-3s! WOW!!!! I hope they keep the same Alco trucks if rebuilt! Really amazing that these engines, built in 1964, have served their entire career on the same trackage through AA/TSBY/GLC!!!!!

Edit: Alright, watched the "Live Webcam" at S.R.I. in Owosso! WOW! Northbound GLC train with three GP35s, 60 cars! Came at 12:40 p.m. December 2, 2024! Engines 391, 393 and 385! These are the three operating ones! COOL!!!!

Yes, I agree! It would be very cool to see TSBY 1977 be fixed and used in operation! Hopefully now we see the GP-35's thrive for much longer! It would be great for some to even get the upgrade. I also wonder how long it will take for 392, 390 and 398 will be fixed.

Oh yeah Delightful Trains! It would be great seeing the remaining idled GP35s fixed! Not many railroads own these! Too bad the ex NS "High Hood" ones sat for years before being scrapped! Seems like GLC is fixing older locos more all of a sudden!!!! Man, it would be amazing for TSBY NW2 #1977 to operate on the RR again! Hopefully staying in "TSBY" colors! Heck, this could be a "Heritage Unit!" It was one of two engines operating when Tuscola & Saginaw Bay Railway® first started operations in Michigan's Thumb in 1977! GLC 398 is a GP38-2 purchased by GLC in 2010! This is sure an interesting RR!!!!

GLC is definitely an interesting railroad! Lots of history behind what GLC is known as today. They sure do own some very interesting locomotives on their roster!
