Trains

This model railroad through a backyard near Battle Creek, Michigan during the first snowfall of the season might just give you some pretty strong Polar Express vibes.

In Big Rapids, the historic, now abandoned, train depot has been put up for auction by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources with bidding starting at $20,000.

These personalized railcars were once made in Kalamazoo and bear the city's name.

This high resolution railroad map from 1897 is like no other Michigan map you've ever seen.

When you think of building railroads, you probably think of old-timey tough guys with massive hammers, beating in the huge metal stakes as they made their way across the country. Well, the times, they are a changin'.

Heard Free Beer & Hot Wings talking about this on the show this morning and had to check it out for myself.  Watch the video and see if you agree with me that this dude really needs to get a life. Think Double Rainbow guy and soon you'll be screaming at your computer "IT'S A TRAIN  dude ok....they roll down tracks across America everyday".
