Re: The return of gypsum near Alabaster for Lake State.
Wonder how much track will have to be reinstalled. I know the Wye at Alabaster (think this is Alabaster Jct) is still in place but how much was actually left in west of there?

Re: Hamilton Northwestern Railroad Co.
I thought I read somewhere‘s on RailRoadFan.com that the WMI was transloading apples that were transported up to Traverse City Michigan for Gogo Squeez. So who knows what the actual range on a transload site could be. Here’s an interesting thought. If Gogo Squeez transloaded those apples from the H...

Re: New siding-business in Traverse City???
All this siding will be for is a transload that is taking some of the business away from Amerhart in Williamsburg. Apparently some former Amerhart guys are trying to stick it to them and get their product unloaded here instead of buying it from the competition.

Re: GLC Train Location Updates - March 2024
Not a train location update, but a location update on GLC.
The main crossing in Alba at US-131 is being upgraded from Crossbucks to Cantilever signals. It appears they are being mounted on their bases today.

Re: CSX Locomotive Roster News, Updates & Information Thread
Any updates on the YN2 count as of the beginning of the year? There are currently 316 units in YN2. Quite a fair amount more already at Erie for rebuild. 121 of these are older GE's now all stored perhaps never to return, leaving around 180 YN2 units still operation. On a side note, the latest CSX ...

Re: Hamilton Northwestern Railroad Co.
They do own a decent chunk of land there in Fillmore at the Fillmore Rd crossing. Looks like the local farmer has crops on some of their land, and a nearby house has a small building on their property too. Guess we'll see how large the transload gets as time goes on. I wonder why the railroad owns ...

CN says goodbye to Baraga
Sounds like CN is pulling the plug on the mothballed section of railroad between L’Anse and Baraga. Per a post on the YooperRails group on Facebook the town was notified last month. How long has it been since anything even went to Baraga? 10-15 years maybe? Wondered why the line wasn’t offered to Wa...
