Emergency Crossing repair

Unread post by patrick »

According to 94.5 the moose's jim and jody morning show, Lake state railway will be making emergency crossing repairs on the Michigan Ave and 24th street crossing. I'm assuming they found a broken rail.

Where?

Is the crossing in Saginaw, Bay City, or Essexville? I can't find where the crossing is.

Found it. It is the crossing near where they built a storage building recently.

Due to crossing repair. no trains in or out of bay city on the LSRC/sbs former csx bay city line. I did however catch the Z126's crew working a job in carrolton shoving grain hoppers into peavy. They had the 1280 as power.

It was the 26th street crossing they were working on. The road is open again, but the barricades are still there, along with a backhoe. A lot of the crossings in the south end could use a little TLC right now.
