Re: Where Is It?

Where be it? Yes, indeed correct!! The Ann Arbor RR main line looking north towards Ann Arbor. The post office in Samaria is to the left in the white building. My late mom's late cousin lived in a old white house which is just next to the main line on the right until it was razed about 30 years ago...

Caledonia, in Kent County, was served by the old New York Central, ex Michigan Central RR passenger train that ran between GR ...

After train gets on MCRR they would use the existing Amtrak depot. Than there ...

Power is lined from PH to most likely get the rest of M383 and bring it back to PH.

This is looking north with the (still existing today) Pere Marquette tracks on the left and the Grand Trunk Western branching off to the right, most of which is gone except for a small section under US31. I'm not sure when this picture was taken so it could be in the C&WM and D,GH&M d...

Sorry, AARR I did not explain that well. Yes almost all the track in the photo is still in place but it ends about where the white truck is.

Re: Where Is It?

Is the track in the picture still in place or is it the bottom (out of picture) that’s still in place? From 1978. I believe this spot has been show before. The main difference is that now the tracks end short of the main road but are still in use. http://railroadfan.com/gallery/albums/userpics/1133...
