MMRR, yeah that's the ticket. Orange things. I need a better map of the city to follow along better. Wait...the Consumers Energy outage maps do a good job...some of the abandoned lines still show up.
Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Southbound LSRC Z127 is in the siding at Newark (south of Grand Blanc) as of 12:06pm. Apparently it’s waiting for a northbound.

Re: Shortline Train Location Updates - March 2021
Not sure, don’t know how long it takes for them to get there once they get going. I do hear the northbound in Holly right now (I’m at Lahring Road north of town), so the meets gonna occur really soon.Micah_D wrote: ↑Sat Mar 27, 2021 12:12 pmAny idea of when they will get to wixom?atrainguy60 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 27, 2021 12:07 pmSouthbound LSRC Z127 is in the siding at Newark (south of Grand Blanc) as of 12:06pm.

I would think you’d have plenty of time if you left now. Northbound is still in Holly.Micah_D wrote: ↑Sat Mar 27, 2021 12:15 pmOkay nice, I have never caught LSRC before so I might give it a shot when they get to wixom.atrainguy60 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 27, 2021 12:14 pmNot sure, don’t know how long it takes for them to get there once they get going.

No worries. I’ve heard several times it’s generally 40mph. Not sure if they go slower in Milford or not.Micah_D wrote: ↑Sat Mar 27, 2021 1:13 pmWhat’s track speed from holly to wixom?

Kind of a late report but one of those sand trains off cn was spotted stopped east of Norwalk, oh on W&LE at 2230 last night. 3rd party report from family. They couldn't see the power or direction of travel.
