The ADBF currently uses 2 GP9s and their SW9. The JAIL uses the SD40-2, GP40-2 and still has 1 GP9 that is somewhat serviceable. These new GP40s will replace all of the remaining GP9s. Once rebuilt and repainted, 2 will go to the ADBF and 2 will remain on the JAIL.

No 2 LSRC locomotives were alike during that era.

Y106 east by CH 146 in Kentwood with 2 Geeps and 7 cars 11:28.

That is actually the Thornapple River Dr overpass in Cascade, just east of Fox. And you are totally correct on Schoolcraft, brain fart.

There is either no L301 today or something else going on, but either way, Y121 will be running to Grand Rapids with 2,800 tons of Holland traffic. Should be a good show with 1 GP38-2 climbing up through Zeeland.

See my previous comment. I am sorry that you do not understand my brand of humor.

Man you guys can’t take a joke.

Y290 is the second shift switcher at the east end. Normally does not leave the yard so you probably wouldn't hear them on the road channel. Any X90 series yard job is a remote control job. Remote control jobs operating in yard limits have zones consisting of certain tracks or leads. These zones exis...

NO CONTAINERS ARE INVOLVED, THE BUSINESS NEAR THE NEW SIDING IS COMPLETELY UNRELATED WHAT ARE YOU PEOPLE NOT GETTING. IT'S A FREAKING LUMBER TRANSLOAD, NEW COMPANY COMPRISED OF FORMER AMERHART PEOPLE AS MQT1223 SAID

Happens all the time. Western apples are cheap.

G801 west at Fox, running 1x1.

You can’t get a stop on an intermediate.

This radio program explains the name of Grand Elk's Gearhart yard. http://wmuk.org/post/rail-yards-new-name-sparks-curiosity I just read on a railfan website that the name of Gearhart yard has possibly been changed to Botsford. Does anybody know if this is true and if so why name change? This isn’t...

That's a completely different engine.

There will be no double stacks in TC, rest assured.

The white one was scrapped in 2013-2014. It was gone by the time I started regularly working Padnos on Y121 and Y223.

Puny train. First car is a MOW flat with a backhoe on it. Do you ever see the huge 326s, or do you only ever comment on the abnormally small ones? I grew up near Fargo, ND, where BNSF’s northern transcon mains cross. Dozens of trains a day and every one 100+ cars. Even the local shortline usually r...
