The Muskegon RR Historical Society's rolling stock
Posted: Sat Mar 17, 2018 3:35 pm
In assembling my notes on the C&O RoadRailers for an article I'm working on, I've found that I don't have any rough dates for when the rolling stock collection at Muskegon was dispersed from its old location at the Union Station. Does anyone recall which year that was? And while I'm asking, how about the year that they began assembling their collection?
From what I recall, the 5208 went to Coopersville, the RoadRailer to Sparta, and the PM caboose stayed at the Union Station. Did the ferry idler flats end up in Manistee, or did they go elsewhere?
So far, the only two C&O RoadRailers I know to be fully intact (complete with road gear) are at Sparta (from the former Muskegon collection) and at the B&O Museum in Baltimore. Anyone know of any others that aren't just a box body on the ground?
Thanks!
