GLC OSTN 25 Not Much Longer

GLC GP35 390 leads GLC GP38-2 396 and 57 mixed freight southbound rolling at 10 mph on the HESR's Owosso Sub towards Durand Yard, MI. The OSTN 25 is passing MP 71 coming into Vernon, MI with 2 of GLC's finest at the controls. Engineer Matt Cox and Conductor Josh Whorley are friends that go way back to when they ran for CSX but now are "seniors" at the GLC. Once the train arrives Durand, they will do a little work and then head south onto the CN Holly Sub for a few miles before getting on the GLC's Ann Arbor District to head to Osmer to work the Ann Arbor interchange. As of late October 2018, the 390 is the last active GP35 with the rest laid up/stored for the time being. The 390 is planned to keep running into 2019 but there are plans to phase out this unit and any in the storage line that may come out for the season.
