Re: CSX Locomotive Roster News, Updates & Information Thread
I guess I will try to redeem myself on here, SD50-2 8585 looks to be in fresh YN3B paint. Not sure what it was prior, but I saw it on a Youtube video and I looked back to see if it had been reported and I didn't find anything. If you need the link for the video as proof I can post it. Linky please....

Re: "PM 1225 Return to Clare" Questions
They should run that babe up here to T.C. We have a nice wye in town to turn it. "TC" PERFECT DESTINATION!" I don't believe thats possible due to weight restrictions on a bridge north of Cadillac. Remember 1225 is heavier then just about anything the AA and PRR ran that far north. I know the AA had...

Re: History of the ROW From Niles to Jackson
Isn't the term "Air Line" used to mean a straight and direct route from point A to point B? I know its a pretty old term in railroading.

Re: "PM 1225 Return to Clare" Questions
There's usually a hella lot of cars chasing the same thing so following along usually helps....most of the time. :lol: Yeah most of the time, when I start seeing more state troopers and congestion I take the next best route. The nice thing about chasing steamers versus diesel is the fact that you d...

Re: Want to buy a Wabash switcher?
Sharp machine. Put it back in Bluebird paint and she will look good as new. She will go to a new home at some point but for now at least she is safe where she is. Never was painted in Bluebird - no WAB switchers were. Just basic black with some yellow on the handrails. This is something I did not k...

Re: In memorandum RIP MM #24
As of last night when I drove by, it was outside again as it has been for the last several days. If I were to walk over one day (keyword IF) when the G&W crews were on site and ask them what's wrong with 24 and what will happen to it do you think I would get an answer or get booted off the property?

Re: CSX Locomotive Roster News, Updates & Information Thread
Just saying that no one HAS to have a photo for you bud. You can google it. I'm sure someone in another state got 8444 in YN3B paint already. You got school in the morning, go to sleep. :lol: You obviously don't get how this works. This happens all the time. People claim repaint, and we ask for a p...

Re: Wisconsin Page
every state around Michigan has its own individual page, could Wisconsin get its own page? How many threads per month do you see from Wisconsin? That should answer your question :wink: Well not many right now because they have no real area to focus on. The "other states" talk is pretty generic. I b...

Re: P371 with a nice crew and sunrise
Filmed on my cell phone, still don't have my cameras back. Good job keeping it steady. It was probably Rich, who always gives friendly toots to railfans. :) 0Mo8lT_YbWQ I actually prop my phone against my car antenna as a base. This time though I needed to keep my hand under the phone as well so it...

Wisconsin Page
Ok, so I know that everyone will just say "add it to the 'other states' page", but considering the fact that RRfan seems to be oriented towards the Great Lakes Region, and that every state around Michigan has its own individual page, could Wisconsin get its own page? I think it would attract more pe...

Re: "PM 1225 Return to Clare" Questions
Another question Where exactly will 1225 be leaving Owosso from? Like what nearby street crossing? M71 & Howard st is the nearest grade crossing...it can be tough in town to figure places out with all the trackage everywhere. Google Maps/MapQuest is your friend here. I use GPS when I chase or make ...

oGIed3xoJ30 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oGIed3xoJ30 On my way home from work and I caught them wyeing in Grand Rapids so I thought I would go and catch them in town. Throw in some great quilling of the horn and a fantastic sunrise and you take an ordinary P371 and you get something special. Fil...
