Marquette running today?

[Pete Mayor]

Gonna be in White Cloud this afternoon and evening. Can anyone enlighten me to if and when I can hope to see MQT grace me with its presence?

[SD80MAC]

They usually get into or near Grand Rapids right around noon, so I'd say they'd be going through White Cloud right around now or at least soon.

[Pete Mayor]

How about the return trip?

[J T]

You see them yet, Pete?

[Pete Mayor]

Negative. Gonna be a night shot if anything.

Marquette Released their EC-1 over CSX at 4:12. Sounded like GLLX 3003 leading, but it was kinda staticy...

Found 2008 switching a unit train of CSX Grain Express cars at the elevator in Newaygo about 6:45. Not photo worthy but cool to watch.

Wait a little longer and the Z train should be roaring down da hill

I'm with you, Pete. I enjoy watching switching moves too I'm impressed how easy the engineers make it look when I know it takes an experienced hand to move the cars back and forth without derailing or damaging something.

[Pete Mayor]

Here's my one shot taken after they were done switching. Thanks for the help everyone.

CSX puts the grain on the back of the manifest of the Ztrain. Ztrain was parked on the other side of the river while the crew spotted at MAC. Same Zcrew spots at MAC and S/O a geep from the consisit and take the rest of the train to Baldwin, unless they go on the law.

The Z train go on the law? NEVER! And with the current power situation, we'll be running the santa train in a Greyhound bus!

[BOHICA]

Yall can use your hi rail truck to pull the 4 and caboose around to all the little kiddies, watch out for them FNGs up there though some say they ain't right in the head.

Is a unit OOS or something? I know one geep has been stationed in Newaygo for the MAC...
