Re: Michigan Short Line Updates - August 2019
No problem, Muskegon crew most likely will work tomorrow, having an earlier Ann St. on-duty time. Not sure what crew will work Friday.NS3322 wrote:kd_1014 wrote:Visual conf. by a family member who saw it in Ada. Should run tomorrow and Friday.Thank you both!

Nope, Alma crew is in GR tomorrow. Also, there's not a set schedule for the GRE, it should be ran Mon, Wed, Fri, but it depends on the cars and what is going on in Muskegon and over here in Alma. For example, last week GR was ran Tues, Thurs. This week however, it's a Mon, Wed, Fri.kd_1014 wrote:No problem, Muskegon crew most likely will work tomorrow, having an earlier Ann St. on-duty time.

3 MMRR and MQT trucks at Ann Street. 5 crew members are looking at the 2104, they have headlamps and everything. Engine house garage door is open, but the 2104 isn't moving or started yet. Not sure what's going on.
Re: Michigan Short Line Updates - August 2019
2104 pulled out of the engine shop but is still not yet switching. It has been like this for over an hour now.
Re: Michigan Short Line Updates - August 2019
A 5th truck just pulled into the GRE driveway. Anyone know what's going on?

Sounds like they might just be working on 2104.

Great, I'll have to hear all about this whole situation tonight!
For those wondering, they were just finishing up with the 92 day inspections.

I don't get to that side of the state much so I unfortunately can't help you out on that one.NS3322 wrote:What time should I expect GRE in Lowell on Friday? 9-11ish?HESR3868 wrote:Nope, Alma crew is in GR tomorrow.

I guess I'm getting a little bit of old head senses in me, kinda like spidey senses but better. I still sure do have a lot to learn in the field though. Every little bit that old grumpy guy teaches me, the better!i995impalass wrote: I like your thinking on how the GR should be ran! I think the old man from Alma would agree also.. hahahah
