The DJJX gondolas currently are worn but usable. Lots of them are seen at Padnos at Grand Rapids
@ Andy24 « Tue 7:04:52 pm »

perfect timing on GDLK
@ Tankcar123 « Tue 4:18:58 pm »
They are now rolling northbound.
@ ~Z~ « Tue 4:14:05 pm »
2 hours down at Endeavor eh? interesting, maybe swapping out a crew that didn’t have many hours to work, who knows with them as of late.
@ Tankcar123 « Tue 3:35:21 pm »
GDLK is sitting at the 133rd ave crossing in Wayland. Been there for almost 2 hours.
@ Andy24 « Tue 1:30:27 pm »
Okay, I plan on getting GDLK
@ ~Z~ « Tue 1:05:55 pm »
This is basically my view, but with some added leaves as of late: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ihdpywCS5iQ
@ ~Z~ « Tue 1:04:58 pm »

i’m surprised you were early as well as you seemed to leave approx when the train was supposedly leaving ensel, but with it not going by Mulliken until 10:53pm, tren was indeed late.
@ Jetlink « Tue 7:35:37 am »
I figured I was late if anything. Not early.
@ Jetlink « Tue 7:35:18 am »
appears the tren arrived on the scene in Sunfield about 1 hour after I biked through.

You can usally see the searchlight in Woodbury from Sunfield even though it is 4 miles away. The intermediates 2 miles away are approach lit but Woodury is continuously illuminated even though it is an intermediate. Both sets of lights at Sunfield are approach lit as is Mulliken.
@ Jetlink « Tue 1:19:06 am »
no headlights or signals visible to the east (normal). Green signal at woodbury (also normal with unoccupied blocks to the west).
@ Jetlink « Tue 1:18:11 am »
cruised up to Sunfield and back. no choo choo

@ Jetlink « Mon 9:36:16 pm »
Any tren approaching my territory?
@ ~Z~ « Mon 9:35:59 pm »
I was out biking near you at the same time you were out Andy. Rode down Clyde park by 68th st about 7:45 or so and continues south.
@ Jetlink « Mon 9:35:58 pm »
Time for bikey
@ Andy24 « Mon 9:34:23 pm »
Waited about 75 minutes on the pedestrian bridge and bike down to the 68th St waiting and went home
