My dad and I led the complete rebuild of the locomotive and cars and she has been running great since 2005.
I have been told that the dept of parks and rec is in charge of the train and they make the decisions about it, yet I know for a fact that they did not decide to remove it from Clinch Park. The Bay Front Planning committee decided it did not fit their idea of a multi-generational park and have not said why they think that.
The Traverse City politics have killed the train.

This is the last year for the train. The Bay Front Planning committee removed the train from the Clinch Park plans (construction will start this fall) with little or no discussion according to commissioner Jim Carruthers and Gary Howe. No one else on the Bay Front (T. Michael Jackson, Jennifer Jaffee, Nate Elkins, Michael Borer, Rick Shimmel and Russ Soyring) have responded to inquiries about the train.

I am glad that you enjoy riding the train. My dad and I rebuilt the engine over the 04/05 winter and did a lot of work on the cars and track to keep her running well. I moved away in early 2007 but he has continued to work on her and we hope that the city will continue to run her.
