Lake State Updates

Unread post by LSRC »

Here are a few updates:

9/1/06: I stopped by the yard, to try and catch the 469 at work. I'll let the pictures speak for the answer.

I just missed the train that evening, but I heard the 1280 leading it.

9/2/06: I had a commitment this past morning near the tracks, and watched, without my camera, the 469 lead the 1280 into Alpena. I didn't count the cars.

Other than that, I have uploaded some new videos to my DM account. Just follow the link:
