Someone should tell them to run the trains like this one at night or something through there. They get in my way. Never thought I’d be annoyed to see a train but there it is. :twisted:

:lol: :lol: :lol: I always hope I get caught by a unit train on the Middleton district when I go through there. They should run one today, you'd just see smoke coming from all the cars due to exploding heads :wink:

I’ll let you figure this one out… what else comes into East Lansing station besides trains and has to get somewhere in a hurry and by extension why would I be annoyed to see a train there if I’m in said hurry?

Hint: Job.

It should make sense… it’s also an attempt at humor. This one actually caught me yesterday at the Harrison crossing. Neat to see one of those inspection cars in person. I raced them from the GM plant in Flint where they had briefly stopped to there… it was a literal tie.

Sorry David, I should have put that in the post. Empty windmill blade train. This one had black cars but I couldn't make out the reporting marks.
