On this map the area where it says Chevron is the new Toledo Port Authority where the grain and stone is going to be handeled. The area that says Toledo-Lucas Co. Port Authoity #1 is the area where the GP10 works and should be where the GP16 & SD40-2 are being stored.

I like the logo on the nose, the diamond making the top of the T with the turn out making the J.

I noticed on a drive yesterday that all the tracks, assoicated with the elevator and stone transload, are in, including the connection to the WLE/NS tracks. Also noticed instead of the new locos inside the fence, there was a 2 axle 25 ton Plymouth in yellow paint. It said something under the cab but could not read it. I am sure I have seen this unit some where else, but cant rember where.

As a side note, the old Lapeer Industrial Railroad switcher that has been at TNT by Stanley Yard, looks as though it got a repaint, into a red color.

Isn't that the yellow plymouth that used to sit with the SD35 at the docks?

I took a picture of it this weekend - I'll try to get it posted here tonight when I can.

It looks like the SD40-2 is heading up to Ironville Docks! (educated guess - but the only logical reason I could come up with for BO06 having a hold of it in Stanley):

It was up at the Toledo Docks (served by CSX) so CSX must have brought it down to Stanley for interchange to NS so they could take it up to Homestead and then from there deliver it over to Ironville Docks (tied in next to the Wheeling bridge).
