Re: Where Is It?
Our trail manager has been out repainting all of our mile markers and whistle posts this week. Can you name the trail and nearby cross street?

The trail crossing at Bailey Dr in Vergennes Township, Kent County.

Re: Where Is It?
Not Lansing. I would say at least a few of the guys on this board have ridden these rails.
Re: Where Is It?
Dearborn?

Re: Where Is It?
Guessing either somewhere on GLC or MQT? On the other hand, we have members of just about every railroad in michigan here, so chances are that a few of the guys on this board have indeed ridden on the rails pictured.

Re: Where Is It?
Quite true Zack. I hadn't thought about that aspect. Well, I have ridden these rails. Very old tracks for sure.
