TUSCOLA & SAGINAW BAY RR �CLARE DIVISION
The current Tuscola & Saginaw Bay RR � Clare Division was started in 1995. The HO Scale Model Railroad is based on an article that appeared in an issue of Prototype Modeler. The article was entitled: �PM Portfolio: The Tuscola & Saginaw Bay: Owosso- Clare Turn.� This article discussed former trackage of the Ann Arbor Railroad that had been taken over by the Tuscola & Saginaw Bay Railroad. The TSBY is now a fallen flag, as it is now known as the Great Lakes Central RR. The Tuscola & Saginaw Bay RR � Clare Division occupies a 44� x 22� basement. The railroad is a point to point layout. The railroad runs from Ann Arbor (staging) to Cadillac also a staging yard. The major towns on the railroad are Owosso, Middleton, Mt. Pleasant, Clare and Cadillac. Owosso and Cadillac have the engine service facilities for The TSBY. I use the North Coast Engineering Digital Command Control System to power the layout. The layout is not signaled following the prototype. The motive power for the railroad is all Gp-35�s with a NW-2 for the yard switcher at Owosso to be added in the future. I actually run the railroad like it is a real railroad. To achieve this purpose I use a car-card system developed by Hank Tenwolde and Dan Hinel that focuses on car type not car number. I have been open to visitors in two North Central Region of the NMRA conventions. The first being in 2003 and the second in 2006. I will also be open for the Grand Rails 2012 NMRA National Convention to be Held in Grand Rapids, MI July 29th �August 4th 2012.
