Interesting as I grew up five houses away from a Grand Trunk line. This reminds me of being a kid as we would walk the tracks down to the Milwaukee junction back in the 70s.
Lots of great looking older power. Great video! I know a lot of people don't like Detroit but I always enjoyed visiting on business. I think it's a very nice city. 😊😊😊

Railroading had a different flavor back then.
you're sure right, very different flavor indeed. Thank you for watching
4:45 a high hood Loco and a big ol Mercury Marquis.
Doesn't get any more 1970's than that!
for sure! great memories though..
Another awesome moment on the DVD at 1:05:45 is a 70s Oldsmobile passing by a high nose loco.
That was some awesome looking rusty equipment on the flatbeds! 😊😊

0:53 right there the GTW 5936 is the last SD40-2 on CN that wears GTW paint
Sad to see them disappear one by one.... GTW lives on in memories and historical preservation :)
@@pletsexpress can your next program be one shortlines in Mississippi and also including the newer returned RILX around Memphis
I like the CP power. ❤😊😊
What road was that center cab switcher? Betcha that loco is probably long gone by now….
That is the Detroit Connecting Railroad. DCON #4 is ex Detroit Edison 500HP GE 65 tonner that was built in 1942.
Thanks for watching
