A discarded spike, left over from when the railroad removed an unnecessary switch, stands guard at C425M 381 awaits her crew. Both soldiers once worked day and night to keep the traffic moving on the Detroit and Mackinac. Now, both are undoubtably on death row.
All those shots of interesting railroad details, what you see trackside, up close and personal! Excludes shots going into my other albums: "Engine Details," "Signal Details," and "Switchstand Shots."
