LansingRailfan, do you know what train this is? A guy posted on
Facebook® (Bill Grooms)! Will this head all the way to Port Huon? Does anyone know?
Update: Facebook® answered! This
"Auto Rack" train is
E270 which terminates in Lansing!
LansingRailfan, do you also have answers about that
D.P.U. from Thanxgiving I asked? Below are the unanswered questions! You answered about the
"Grinder!"
