After sharing a couple telephoto shots from this spot here is a wide angle. The slow speed sure is a boon to photographers allowing for multiple angles at each spot never mind how easily chaseable it is!
Here again is Pan Am train NMWA-13 rolling down District One, the once great Maine Central Railroad Portland Division mainline. The trio of MEC 510, 316, and 7545 (a GP40-2LW, GP40, and C40-8 respectively) with their 4261ft long train of 59 loads and 4 empties are crossing Fuller Road at about MP 75.3 on the modern day Freight Main.

With an Approach Slow across the Grand Rapids Eastern diamond at Fuller, Marquette Rail's Z151 is headed south for CSX's Wyoming Yard behind GLLX #3001, MQT #2005, and GLLX #3002. This would be one of the last times I would shoot the '01 before it got the orange dip.
Sometimes, everything just works out! Marquette Rail and Grand Rapids Eastern meet at Fuller diamond on a sunny April morning. Once MQT clears, the GRE will use headroom across the diamond for some switching. Happy to have finally gotten a meet here!

HSS-- just a little tweaking today. it's either this one or the swan for SlidersSunday.........
on thursday my SIL gave me the gift of lessons on how to better use my canonSX60. took this one at the fuller craft museum, then some pics of a swan i spotted on the way home, took more than 60 shots (a couple in the photostream). i love my SIL, loved the instruction, and i think i may grow to really love the BGC :)
The Rocklin Rocket is seen switching one of its last industries before tying up for the day. At MP 110, the local switches H.B. Fuller to pick up and drop off a few tanks. After this it will switch a lumber industry less than a mile south then go the final couple of miles to the Roseville yard.
Ya, ya, I know but... I liked the skewed angle. So, there you go.
The building is called that because it was the home of the Fuller Construction Company (not the Fuller Brush Company, which was my first thought) who were responsible for many architectural edifices, including the famous Flatiron Building.
*BTW, these steam-releasing tubes are all about the midtown and I haven't a clue what their purpose is.
We have some old books that I was thumbing thru, and discovered this personal note handwritten from a friend to Fuller Barnes in 1899. Fuller F Barnes was a descendant of the founders of Wallace Barnes Mfg. now Associated Spring in our old town in Bristol CT.

Rolling north through the freshly-fallen snow, Marquette Rail's Z151 approaches the Grand Rapids Eastern diamond at Fuller.

Marquette Rail's Z151 knocks down the signal for Fuller diamond as the train crosses Indian Mill Creek. During this era, MQT had 5 GP38-2s leased from GATX, but it was pretty unusual to see the Z train running with just a pair of them. GMTX #2676 was a former Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines unit that was built with an extended cab to accommodate dual control stands.
I don't know if the Grand Rapids Eastern's yard has a name or not, but since it's located right at Fuller junction, "Fuller Yard" makes sense to me. Here we see the crew running to the other end of the yard as they begin their day of work. From left to right we have the main, track 1, 2, 3 and the engine house lead.

Engineer trainee Neil Klemm is at the controls of MQT 3406, 3407, 3389 on CSX rails coming north out of Grand Rapids MI with a train of cars from CSX's Wyoming Yard to bring back to Marquette property. The train is passing the Fuller Diamond signals that guard the former GTW/PM diamond. In this interlocking in a day you can see the GRE, Grand Elk, MQT and CSX, mind you they are all just one train a day if that but it still see's all 4 railroads. To the right of the engines used to be the former PRR/Michigan northern mainline to Traverse City Mi.

After waiting for the northbound Marquette Rail Z151 to clear, 2042 clatters across the CSX diamond with it's train. The crew will then place the outbounds on the CSX and GDLK interchange tracks, park the engine in the barn, and call it a day.
