Eastern Railroad Discussion > Yesterday in Lake Erie LandDate: 05/24/23 09:12 Yesterday in Lake Erie Land Author: train1275 A couple from yesterday, May 23, 2023
1. The boat Manitoulin arrvies in Sandusky Harbor for a load of coal at the NS Coal Dock. 2. & 3. Train 61H barrels through Vermilion on Track 2 eastbound with NS 7683 and 1818.    Date: 05/24/23 09:14 Re: Yesterday in Lake Erie Land Author: train1275 4. Train 316 out of Bellevue comes over the NKP Vermilion River bridge late in the day with NS 1167 up front, and a DPU way back mid-train. This train was a real monster !

Different boat, same name. Date: 05/24/23 14:46 Re: Yesterday in Lake Erie Land Author: Pattenburg Thanks for the correction!
Date: 05/25/23 02:28 Re: Yesterday in Lake Erie Land Author: JPB Lower Lakes Towing does have a few very old classic lakers still in operation: Cuyahoga (80 yrs old), Saginaw (70 years old), and MIchipicoten (71 years old)
But unfortunately, Cuyahoga experienced an engine room fire off Pelee Island in Lake Erie Tuesday night so its future is now uncertain. https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/windsor/cuyahoga-fire-lake-1.6853527 Date: 05/25/23 07:42 Re: Yesterday in Lake Erie Land Author: MacBeau Interesting images and subjects as always, thanks for the look. Shot #4 is especially nice.
