Out of storage off the Munger line

HESR's 5175 is pulling stored coal cars out of the Munger spur. This line is a former mainline for the Michigan Central. Flimed crossing the daimond in Reese Mi.

Nice RS5T!

Don't know too much about horns but I do like this one. Reese is my home town and rarely do we see six axles in town.

What line is going the other direction at the diamond? Is that one of TSBY's lines? How often do trains go on the opposite track?

[vettestyle]

Huron and Eastern (HESR) owns both lines. The other line sees a daily train to and from Bad Axe 800/805 are their #'s It also has a local #810 that is mostly daily but not always as needed. Last but not least grain extras one to two per week ish.

Great video! I saw LSRC's 5921 basically do the same thing last night pulling 100+ empty coal cars back down to Flint. I have seen one of LSRC's GP40's do this as well (100 cars). It looks awesome but in reality isn't much more than 3000 tons and in this case around 2000. Still an awesome video.

I wonder why they had those coal cars stored on the Munger spur, I thought they would of taken them to Durand when they were done with them.

Yeah they seem to not want matching locos for their trains, however last time I have seen 702/701 they still have the matching 5492 and 5086, what they need to do is bring back the 4065 and put that in the consist with those two.
