One Saturday  At  Flint, MI. In  1992

On October 10,1992, a friend and I traveled over to Flint to see what we could find on the railroads there. Our first stop was at the CSX McGrew yard where this big CSX sign greeted us. The morning started out with overcast skies.

CSX No.2059 was switching cars in the yard.

Standing on a side track next to the freight shed was the "Spirit of Pere Marquette."

We left the freight house area and went to the south end of the yard where the CSX enginehouse stood. I took this photo looking across the Saginaw main line. There was some power standing there in the old B&O and Seaboard paint scheme. The engine house is on the left in this view.

While checking out the scene at the CSX enginehouse, No.8218 and train came sailing by from Saginaw.

Our next stop was the GTW  yard on Bristol rd. southwest of Flint. By now the sun had emerge and made for better photography. We caught GP38-2 No.5827 coming into the yard leading two GP40's, 6412 and 6414. They were picking up some car haulers.

In this view are two SW 1200 switchers built in 1960, Nos.1513 and 1516. To the right is GP9r 4610. It was formerly 4904, built for the Grand Trunk of New England. In the background is the GTW car shops.

Three GP38-2s, 5734, 6227 and 5703 standing on the ready track. GTW engine house is on the right.

View of GTW's enginehouse at Bristol yard. GP38AC, No.5811 stands just inside the door on the right. On page-2 we will have moved to the west end of Bristol yard and will try and catch some action on the main line.
