[@cadenmichael3217]

I remember seening these units at a very young age, sad to see them not here

[@fnm9908]

A very nice ABA set of dash 7's and a great sounding leslies in both trains...great video

[@trainutjob]

Great videos, and that into is Kickass!

[@TheUnknownAvenger]

The ex-BN and ex-BNSF units were awesome! But, the horn on the former BN unit was amazing!

[@MikeG42]

Real nice video thank you !

[@texasrupert]

nice video and that is cool to see older GE's units are still running.

[@trainman1986]

Great video nice to see others videos from my area, I see these trains all the time so a view from someone else is always nice. Other than that just two of the daily trains that run Bay City everyday.

[@DelayInBlockProductions]

Did you eat at the Turkey Roost at Kawkawlin?

[@Hail2Pitt412]

Wow, these ALCo's are amazing!

[@Baldwindiesels]

Really nice work! You know, there are M-420s much closer to home at Winslow!

[@jasonminier82]

I love the Zebras! The horn rocks!

[@PennRailVideos]

@phildoethedildoe The middle unit is an ex-Burlington Northern B30-7B.

[@TheCellphoneRailfan]

The LSRC #181 that you described as a C424 is actually a C425. The visual difference between the two is that the C425 has a raised portion on the hood beneath the overhangs of the radiator while the C424 does not.

[@PennRailVideos]

@xxxDeath9572xxx The Leslie on the GP40-2 is actually an S3L.

[@bigd522524]

Really nice work thanks for sharing. !:D

[@17deanju]

It's heading south... I live near this railroad I see this station all the time

[@Hail2Pitt412]

This is a Leslie free for all! a RS5T on the ALCo and a GP40-2 with a sweet RS3L!

[@ConrailJon]

Also, 1171 is a GP40M-3, ex TFM

[@1225Forrest]

i see these trains all the time her in Bay City!

[@phildoethedildoe]

Dude, i Do believe that all Three Engines on this train are GE U Boats, Nothing like the smooth sound of the Cooper Bessimer FDL V16 :) :) That Engine will shake the very heart of you when they are idling :) the First and third Engines are C30-7's The middle one is an older Cab less U18 B. I think???

[@louisebooth9751]

is he heading south? or north? nice catch of hesr 5086 and lake sate

[@STICKGUYMB]

4:56 I remember recording that when I was 11 (i think i was 11). Man, my mom was driving me somewhere... and we saw that exact train and she took me to another crossing to watch it go by. I got it on video.

[@17deanju]

Omg haha 9:23! I live in that town! Those tracks are just down the street

[@williamyoung6715]

was the 3rd unit an ex bnsf?

[@bobozo389]

Nice to see the old ALCOs still running as of 2009! Are they still in use? Bob...

[@MichiganRailProductions]

bobozo389 unfortunately not. They were taken from service all around 2011 I believe.

[@bonehead1902]

Its the northbound to Alpena,MI. LSRC alcos are dead just a pure EMD railroad they bought 2 more SD40's so they have three SD units now the. After the remaining Alcos got scraped or sold they bought i think 5 or GP40s. one has the same horn as 1171.

[@17deanju]

@delayinblock haha it's cool to know that someone else knows where the turkey roost is

[@benforsberg7417]

Unfortunately the the C30-7s have been retired and cut up. However they are still easily found in Brazil to this day.

[@douglastaylor7225]

No the c30-7 are in Durand, no a friend of mind told me they are parked on one of the old tracks that don't get used and so is 8903

[@gp40mc]

Awesome vid! 5/5.

[@PennRailVideos]

That's right, it was a Mexican engine.

[@ConrailJon]

Central Michigan hasn't existed since 2004. This is all the Huron & Eastern Railroad
