Michigan’s First Major Snow Storm for 2019 - 20 Season • A Photo Album & short story from Pontiac, Michigan

1 Let's Go Rail-fanning

Let’s leave my train room and go rail-fanning. The best way to cure cabin fever.

2 Siemens Charger

Train number 350 has arrived on time from Chicago. November 12, 2019 @ 2:39 PM.

3 Businessclass

The Wolverine Business-class at sunset at the rear of a Siemens Charger.  Waiting on siding to return to Chicago.

4 Conductor going to work

Amtrak’s conductor has a cup of coffee as she is preparing to take train Number 355 @ 5:35 PM back to Chicago. A CN autorack goes speeding by kicking up snow at 40 mph. I was told that this train is taking finished vehicles from Flint - Saginaw plants to Windsor, Ontario via the Detroit - Windsor Railroad Tunnel.

5 Engineer Boarding

The engineer is boarding Amtrak’s Midwest Siemens Charger to Chicago.

6 Train 355 back to Chicago

Train Room Gary is waiting at crossing gate for Amtrak’s Wolverine to clear.

7 Signal Bridge

The Wolverine Line to Chicago approaches her first signal bridge.

Wait there is more………………………. !

8 Checkers

Last Stop:  Ask for a hamburger and I was told they only have cheese burgers & ask for a Pepsi and I was told they only had Coke. What’s up with this ………. ? !  Just one more thing, as you can see I drive a F150 and the final assembly plant is just south of Pontiac. You can take a tour of this plant. “Ford Rouge Factory Tour”.

Camera: iPhone 11 Pro & Post-production: Adobe Photoshop & Lightroom.

Thanks for taking a look & have a great weekend: Gary
