    Early Morning in Port Huron

    Early Sunday morning in Port Huron shows an almost empty CSX Port Huron Yard. The mix of locos, slug, and some rolling stock is a far cry of the capacity of this small yard. The operations will end this month. Only a few more morning like this left with trains in Downtown Port Huron, MI. Dan
