Eastern Railroad Discussion > Battle Creek, MI QuestionDate: 09/08/19 16:35 Battle Creek, MI Question Author: PRR_4859 Does CN still maintain a mainline fuel pad at Battle Creek, MI? Are there any other facilities there(car shop, locomotive service truck, etc)?
Thank you in advance. Date: 09/08/19 17:08 Re: Battle Creek, MI Question Author: sixaxlecentury Nope. Any refueling is done by truck. If engine work is needed MofE will come down from Flint for basic items. A small carshop is still open though.

Thank you again. Date: 09/08/19 17:55 Re: Battle Creek, MI Question Author: sixaxlecentury By car its a solid 2 hours Northeast. I cant speak for the fuel pads, but everything over here is done by truck now. Chicago might still have a pad.
