Re: East Jordan Iron Works
Hopefully they can either bring in raw materials or haul our finished product. I wonder why they never transloaded the coke in Gaylord it would of been closer.

Re: BO Tower Countdown
So will all of the michigan line be under amtrak dispatch? Meaning JAIL would contact them instead of NS Dearborn?

Re: Info about the Jackson and Lansing Railroad
Jail crews dont really mind the railfans if they just stay back. The owners are the ones who throw a fit. And they run tue-sat.

Re: Ann Arbor RS1 #21
I thought way back the SMR had an agreement with NS to lay some temporary track down over their main to move the stranded SMR equipment.

Re: Cargill T-6 1017
I saw it in Ensel yard on 708, couldn't get a picture of it though as I was working. Plus they left their cars on Main 2 while grabbing our cars.

Re: Napoleon, Defiance and Western: The Definitive Thread
I'm surprised the grain elevator doesn't ship by rail. Is it not that busy?

Re: Lansing's Old Town railroad spur to be reactivated
I believe they pulled the rail down to replace the rail in the crossing.Mark F wrote:Drove over the North St crossing this afternoon. Looks to be a section of rail missing just south of the crossing.

Re: EL 725 SOLD**
Probably going to be awhile, track is only being fixed due to lack of storage space. F-unit will most likely be buried.

Re: Train vs. Semi
First train went EB at about 5:00 AM the next morning. I don't think the train derailed and the fuel was from the truck.

Since half of the Conrail assets went to CSXT, perhaps JAIL was simply returning the car to its owner. The car looks to be in decent condition.

Re: Curious Wanderings to Cadillac and McBain
If they have cars for McBain as the train heads north they could do like we do and "sandwich" the cars drop those off then connect the engines together and continue up to Cadillac.
