I used to be the outbound train inspector for the Ypsilanti terminal before it shut down. They moved most of us to Melvindale [detroit] after. I can tell you that I've probably made repairs to every trailer in this video, and half of the bogies.
Thanks! Unfortunately the only RoadRailers still running now are one each way between Detroit and Kansas City. So I never get to see them anymore either. All other trailers were retired.
Oh no that's sad I seen not to long ago a bunch of triple crow. Trailers in Kansas city when I went to deliver at Ceva but I never seen them on the rails
Triple Crown is reforming and all the trailers are just about aged enough that they'll need to be retired. There were rumors going around that NS had approached the Wabash trailer company about making new ones but that either, never happened, or they changed their minds. I hear that all the RoadRailer trains will be phased out by the 28th of this month so get them while you can!
