MQT3001 wrote:ONE THING SHOULD BE CLEARED: DT&C's SHOP HAS BEEN UNEFFECTED....that spat was caused by a misunderstanding :oops: . But I wonder when a video on youtube will pop up of the GE and EMD employees throwing nuts and bolts at each other as they battle to be the best Locomotive builder & maintainer in the US :lol:
wonder if those bolts GE throw would drive EMD nuts? :mrgreen:
Lol the we've come up with a plan to fix this problem, as it sometimes comes up, we've proposed Lima Locomotive Co.
It would be 50% GE and 50% EMD and comprise of workers from both companies. All of GE's board members have approved this and we're waiting on EMD...

I can't remember if I asked you this already, but can the GR&P have trackage rights from Riga and Detroit? There would be trains coming off of the GR&P at Riga going to the AA line at Diann, as well as some trains from Chicago and Detroit using the DT&C between Detroit and Riga. I have added the new trains to list of GR&P trains early even though the line isn't finished yet, so if you want to see how many trains there will be, they're in the list.

Yea but you won't be able to run trains until August when the complete double tracking project is done so we have more room to work with.

HESR

I tried posting pictures of the others, but the pics didn't show. So basically, the others would be a GTW blue and red, a INER, a ABDF, a MMRR in the blue and white scheme, and a GDLK engine in Watco black and yellow. Keep them true to the original's, and just put a tiny GR&P under the cab.
What number would you like the HESR unit be?

Ok the font might be a bit difficult but the "COUNTY OF HURON" under the cab looks ok.

LLC employees are proud of what they have done today by finishing a heritage unit. Now back to work on DR&EC SD40-3W's and pianting the rest of the fleet.
