Ep. 475: LSRC 2016: Geeps & Mechanical Bells
ALPENA, MI JUNE 2016 -- It's another summer on Michigan's Sunrise Coast shortline, the Lake State Railroad, and their efforts to service the town of Alpena, a cement-making powerhouse, home to several limestone quarries.
In this episode, we'll see a sampling of the action 2016 had to offer, focusing on the crossings which retain their classic mechanical bells, a perfect match for the equally classic EMD Geeps which trundle up and down the old Detroit & Mackinac mainline.
Still, I suppose the old D&M ALCOs would be more fitting, but we can't always get what we want!

I miss your narration . I like when you talk about history, the scene, behind the scenes stuff, etc.
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...
