Re: GDLK Operations
If this is in the wrong thread, moderator, feel free to move it. So I was leaving work in White Pigeon, MI. Fire/police/mdot trucks have US12 blocked off at the GDLK tracks on both sides of the road. Between Mc D's and the Country Table. Looks like the train is stopped and the last box car is settin...

Re: The Reappearing Rail Spur
Not to derail the thread (no pun intended) but there is still part of an old spur/siding in Three Rivers. Sets off of Mechanic St in the woods/tree line where the old Michigan Air Line used to run. On the east side of the former diamond. I think this is where the old green Pen Central box car sat wh...

Re: GDLK Operations
Most likely just to many crew members. Could be a brakeman or if they have a trainee there may not be enough seats in the lead unit. That makes sense. Thank you. Even if there are enough seats in the leader, most railroads allow you to use your cellphone if you’re in a cab other than the leading lo...

Re: GDLK Operations
I happened to notice, a few times, a person riding in the second or third locomotive in Grand Elk's lashups. Now I always thought all the locomotives in a lashup are controlled by the lead locomotive (except for back in the steam days obviously) Do they have to have someone back there to monitor or...

Re: Court rules against railroad that struck Detroit-area teen
Still technically the owner. Some of the MOW trucks say "Operated by Grand Trunk Western" on the cab. You know I saw a MOW truck in Three Rivers on US131 about a year ago. I was surprised to see GTW on it, was setting beside it at the stop light at Broadway and 131. Also thought it was strange to s...
