If only...

Amtrak 365 from Port Huron MI to Chicago IL. This is in Oshtemo MI just west of Kalamazoo. They are about two miles into the 90MPH territory. If only it were a Hudson sweeping around the curve with the Mercury.

Amtrak 351 westbound at Mattawan MI. They were running close to 90MPH when they past by so there was just time to turn away and cover the camera. This is on Amtrak's Michigan line (ex-Michigan Central/NYC trackage).
