The SD60 or 70 MAC (whatever) switching the Port Huron Industrial track is one of those if I didn't see it I wouldn't believe it. Thanks for the proof Dave.

Wow - like you said BB - that's a lot of boxcars

Thanks for the good pictures Chris

Thanks Matt...this time I think I got it

Is it confirmed that it's SBS? If yes, that's not good...

Thanks for clearing that up Matt. It looks like there are no more run throughs on AA from either CN or NS then.

Pat C said Novemeber, and of course Novemeber came and went. I too am keeping an eye out for the next planned MIGN gathering.

Justin, Did you draw a track plan before you started. It looks like some of your track took some pre-planning before putting it together.

Thanks GP30M4216. You make it feel like I'm right there with you.

LMAO

Awesome pictures Matt

Keep us posted. Thanks.

You're right, in the picture the rail looks awful. The author said the zoom exaggerates the condition of the track. Good thing cause in the picture that track looks worse than GLC's line to Middleton

Maybe the cars didn't derail, maybe that's LSRC's method of ballasting the track

Despite the long and heavy trains gravel is a low profit commodity. And the flyash faces stiff competition from both trucks and ships. The track is expensive to maintain. If they don't get financial assistance from the state (and MI has a serious deficit) they may review the viability of the line no...

Hmmm, that was short. Thanks for the good info Justin.

Thanks Matt. My resources (primarily maps) didn't differentiate ownership east and west of Maple Street. They all showed GTW ownership on both sides. Thanks again for the clarification!

These look like lines from "The Naked Gun", The Naked Gun and 1/2", "Airplane", etc. My kind of humor though.

If it's possible can someone check and see if Lafarge also receives gypsum? I've noticed in a couple pictures from LSRC Railfan that the open top hoppers at Lafarge have a whitish commodity in them and I've read that gypsum is still used in cement prodcution. Thanks guys.

4 pack of WAB stock cars and SOO ore cars. A few other odds-n-ends. What I'm really hoping for this week is some time to finish my elevation lines so the cookie cutting can commence! All I have to do is figure where I'll place the cement plant and I'll be good to go
