Re: Michigan Rail business news redux

I have not seen a map showing where the battery plant will be in Marshall. I assume the State/MDOT will have to build a branch line to get to the plant site. Do not see much rail business this plant will produce. Batteries are made in Georga so maybe NS will get he haul of batteries out of Georga. B...

Re: NS 181 derails in Van Buren Township

Why do you wish ill will to the stockholders? Without them putting up their money there would be no railroad. Why do you want to take away the retirement income of retirees, widows and orphons?
