Central Michigan GP40-2LW #9712Back when the Central Michigan truly was the Central Michigan (2001ish), a northbound train from Saginaw enters the neighborhoods of Bay City on a northbound run toward Wenona Yard. Powering this train is a matching set of CMGN power, GP40-2LW #9712 and U23B #8905. Just imagine the wailing horn echoing off the houses as it rolls through crossing after crossing.GP30M4216Nov 03, 2017

40 Years at MP 202 curve Charlotte, MI2/28/76 (left) with Amtrak on a two track GTW main.
3/10/17 (right) with Amtrak 365 on the now single track CN main.
Vehicles change from a 1972 Oldsmobile Omega to a 2017 Jeep.
Power pole still there and foliage has grown up.
Still a good place to enjoy trains.Larry GOct 16, 2017
