Saginaw & Michigan Thumb (S&MT) with GE's

Unread post by AARR »

Saginaw & Michigan Thumb (S&MT) is a short line railroad operating 222 miles of track in The MI Thumb of the lower peninsula of Michigan. It was purchased it from RailAmerica in 2012. The railroad is headquartered in the former Michigan Central Railroad depot in Vassar.

At the time of start-up RA was being acquired Genesee & Wyoming (G&W) who was retiring the eight GE's on the RA roster. S&MT purchased them at a good price and they went to work immediately.
