Lake State Railway 1997-98

This is the rest of my Lake State footage taken on trips to the Soo Locks in 1997 and 1998. In1997, brief stops at Bay City are followed by switching at Alpena, then a chase from Gaylord towards Grayling. The following year we caught the Gaylord job at Grayling heading north, then ran into the northbound out of Bay City at West Branch, chasing as far as Roscommon. I only wish I had video when they were still running to Cheboygan and Mackinaw City.
