385 was reactivated this week but went north on ONTN. It led which was nice.
What made them bring it back? It’s been under threat for scrapping/cannibalism for parts for YEARS, plus, I also thought it had a bent frame, or am I thinking of another unit?

Another unit has the bent frame I believe.

GLC needs the power baaaad
397 has the bent frame. As of right now, it’s in various states of being torn apart.
Consistently confused

399 396 leaving Cadillac for Clare at 1045. May have run to Petoskey yesterday judging by what left town.
