Remember, these lessor known beauties were powered by 327ci Corvette firepower that added to their already fabulous looks and desirability. This car was the second ISO Rivolta shown at this year's Greenwich Concours Show, and more information on the car, and car company can be found here: flic.kr/p/2q5Sfpo
Always loved the early Buick Riviera design. This one was on display at the Blacktop Nationals event in Wichita quite a few years ago. The owner was nowhere to be found or I would have had him close the hood so I could get a clean shot of the nose and its fabulous paint job. The Riviera cost $4385 in 1964, which would be the equivalent of $42,118 today. I've seen several for sale on the Hemmings website for around $29,000 to $49,000 recently.
Arriving in early 1964 in 2 separate deliveries, the Ann Arbor Railroad took delivery of 10 new EMD GP35s, all delivered with Alco Type-B trucks. The trucks were sourced from Alco FA's that the railroad employed when they dieselized, and EMD offered a discount on the overall cost when they sourced trucks from a trade-in unit. The units covered a lot of ground, spending time on DT&I property as they were the parent company of the Ann Arbor, as well as Conrail running unit sand trains to Cleveland for Ford Engine Casting, and one even ending up in Altoona, PA.
After the bankruptcy of the Ann Arbor in 1976, it being folded into Conrail, and after intervention by the State of Michigan to preserve rail operation in the state, the Michigan Interstate Railroad took over operations and inherited the units. In 1982 after an embargo on ferry operations, the State appointed Tuscola & Saginaw Bay the operator between Ann Arbor and Alma, which kept the units home. In 1984, TSBY took over the portion of the line from the Michigan Northern, returning the GP35s all the way back to Cadillac.
In 2006, TSBY was purchased by Federated Railways Inc. and was renamed Great Lakes Central, they became the new owners of the then 42 year old units still in service. Over the years, some were decommissioned, stored, or even scrapped. Some went through a rebuild program where they were upgraded to GP35-3s thanks to wiring upgrades by the late great Kevin Wood. With the Watco takeover in late 2025, they were immediately targeted for phase out. As mechanical issues arose on them, units were parked and stored. The last unit standing was 394, appropriately the last one delivered to the Ann Arbor. It made it's last run north out of Owosso in January, it was subsequently drained, parked, and is now awaiting an uncertain fate. 385 has since left the property and is now in Tennessee, 393 is slated to be moved to Texas, and other's own an uncertain fate.
While 62 years of service is no small feat, especially in a world where so many things are viewed as disposable, and so many locomotives have come and gone I may be greedy saying I would have enjoyed more. I spent the formative years of my childhood seeing these running, chasing these all over the state from my early railfanning days, to having a level of access to them few ever had, and getting photos that I will treasure forever, there is no part of me that feels like I am at peace. When you're just used to something being there and it is gone, perhaps I am being greedy, perhaps selfish, but with everything else we have lost in Michigan in the last few years, this one hurts so much more.
All I have are memories now, thankfully this is one as I almost gave up. After hearing it was in Howell near sunset working the CSX connection at Ann Pere, I made my way to Durand and began waiting, and waiting, and waiting. After 4 hours, I was ready to start pulling lights and go home. Wandering around making empty threats to the rail gods, a horn sounded in the distance and the radio lit up with GLC 394 to Desk 10, looking to come north Pitt to Durand. I made a double check on all the lights, got into position, and made the wait worth it.

AUF DER SUCHE NACH MÖGLICHKEITEN,
MÖGLICHES FESTZUHALTEN (Heinz Gasper 1980)
Als gebürtiger Düsseldorfer hat es mich schon sehr früh in die Ferne gezogen. Frankfurt, München, Wien, Graz und seit 1999 wohnhaft in Jennersdorf, im wunderschönen Südburgenland.
Im ausgeübten Beruf als Werbegestalter und Grafiker (1966-1992) aber auch in der Selbständigkeit (bis 2012) ist die bildende Kunst immer allgegenwärtig gewesen.
Meine Leidenschaft sind Experimente mit verschiedenen Hilfsmitteln und Materialien wie zum Beispiel:
Kurzfilme mit und ohne Kamera - Kodak-Sofortbilder ganz ohne Kamera - Negativstreifen und Dias anders gesehen - PC-Fehler zur kreativen Weiterverarbeitung verwenden - Digitalfotografie und ihre Möglichkeiten mit einem Apple-Computer kombinieren und verfeinern - und bis heute noch vieles mehr entdecken...

Last taxed in 1982 although my guess is that it's been used off road much more recently than that. It only appeared here a couple of days ago.
I've realised how little I know about these. I thought they had a Rolls Royce engine, but that was the Champ. These had a version of the six cylinder BMC C series.
No they didn't. It was a 2.2 litre 4 cylinder engine as fitted to the Austin A70. I wasn't aware this engine existed!
Around 21,000 were built between 1958 and 1968; a fraction of the number of Land Rovers who were its main competitor. Unlike the Land Rover, this has steel bodywork.
They were also assembled in Australia and New Zealand although I don't recall ever seeing any in Australia by the 1980's.
