I was a young sprout when I remember this. It was on the Toldeo Subdivision headed toward Wayne Yard,, In Southgeast Michigan. My grandfather had sadly passed away on August 3rd. We (my family and I) were coming across the M-153 (Ford Rd.) Bridge over the tracks. Soon my mom spotted smkoe. She pointewd the car down a truck route, which parellels the bridge. Soon, We hear the whristle. A 4-8-4 Northern (Had the big boards up front around the boiler) comes haulking down the line carrying a train of atleast 20 gray passenger cars (All windows gone). Does anybody know what was happening, why it was there?
