Grand Trunk Western's Stevenson St. yard on the west side of downtown Flint, MI was an interesting little yard that served Chevrolet Flint Manufacturing (later Delphi Flint West). Wedged into a curve on the old main line down "in the hole" by the Flint River, I remember it full of hi-cube boxcars, switched by SW-1200's (in later years GP-38's). The engines struggled to drag the cars out of the valley, with the skyline of Flint in the background. Alas, it's all gone now. The last train left in Sept. 2000, and everything has been torn up. Delphi Flint West is completely gone now.
