Hey everyone, the Ann Arbor Railroad Retirees gather again, for the 28th year in a row, at the Blaine Township Hall on White Owl Road August 4, to celebrate their years of service in Elberta’s unique industry. All are welcome (bring food!), and the Alert encourages younger and non-railroad/car ferry folks to attend and learn from these wise captains of the Village’s industrial past. Jim Gilbert organizes this event every year, and you should hear some of the stories.
