Re: C&M Running Freight
Supposedly, GM/Delphi was the reason the tracks were saved at all, as the Central Michigan that owned the line after GTW sold it tried to remove the tracks to salvage the material but were stopped due to the Gov requirement to have active rail service to the facility. There would have been an aband...

Way before that, ending around 1979 or 1980, Amtrak ran a Detroit to New York City round trip Train, the Niagara Rainbow , via the Detroit River Tunnel, Windsor, Niagara Falls and Buffalo daily. That ended when Conrail abandoned/sold their Canada Southern Line throught Ontario about that time. That...

Re: Plymouth & GR sub-div Work
Have we considered that they don't intend to re-signal the area? Given the light traffic and the current TWCD operations, I could see CSX deciding to run the area as dark territory from now on That would require an application to the FRA. In 2013 CSX asked for permission to remove the Plymouth Sub ...

Erickson, the Lansing area's last coal power plant, shut down on 11/27/22. Consumers' J.H. Campbell Plant will close in 2025....

Re: Snow Yard in Lansing, MI
Does CN actually run anything out of Snow Yard anymore? I know it is used for storage of coal cars, and some autoracks, but that's all I have seen it used for in years. The locals that serve the customers around the yard are not based out of Snow (Isn't R33 based out of Cory Yard now). Other than c...
