Re: MI Shortline Updates - May
GDLK brought in a WSOR unit and 4225 for power today. looked to be a 30-40 car train. Also had a GP40-2LW with them that they left in Hughart yard.
Have not heard them come south yet but came north around 3:15 around 68th St.
Yard Power is still the 3531 and 7030.

Re: MI Shortline Updates - May
Anyone have any idea about what time LSRC 304 heads south from Grayling? I'm not 100% sure but I think it runs every weekday. I haven't seen it in almost 2 years, so that may have changed. If the timing works out, I may stop to see them in St Helen on my way up north a week from Friday.

Re: MI Shortline Updates - May
I don't think it runs to Bay City everyday. Some days it might just switch around Grayling and at least once a week goes to Gaylord. It might go south to Bay City 2-3x per week would be my guess.
