Hot time in the old town.......
Posted by JoeKoh on Sunday, October 10, 2004 10:03 AM
While going to Toledo we found in grand rapids Ohio a Baldwin 0-6-0 switcher and tender donated to the Toledo Lake erie and western rr by detroit edison. It needs some work but its a beauty. also found a C&O chessie caboose and a grand trunk and western transfer caboose too.The people from the TLE&W are running speeder shuttles for the apple butter fest in grand rapids but expect to fight some big crowds.so if you come by this area I would stop and say hi!
stay safe
