Re: Yard between Newburgh and Palmer at Wayne (Northland)
For about a year or so Conrail and CSX ran an auto parts train between Jackson and Flint. We would pull east of the diamond on a track parallel to #2 Main (the southern of the two mains) which isn’t on the map, then shove around the wye in the southeast corner of the crossing (also not on the map) and then go north. One side of this train used a CR crew and the other side a CSX crew. The train was a relatively short train built in Jackson made up of GM cars from Lansing and Kalamazoo.
