Formed in 1892, the
Lake Superior & Ishpeming hauls Magnetite and Hematite pellets from the Empire
and Tilden Mines to the ore docks at Presque Isle, Michigan. With a combination
of first and second generation Alco and GE motive power, the LS&I is a unique
look at modern day iron ore railroading on the Michigan Ore Range. Michigan
Iron Ore, contains over 40 miles of shortline operations with an interesting
mix of motive power, including the ALCO RSD-12 and the RSD-15 "Alligator".
Later LS&I motive power, such as former BN U30C and C30-7's are also included.
With these locomotives, you will pull 100 car ore trains from the mines to the
docks. With this kind of tonnage, we can assure you that you will be challenged
every step of the way down the step hill to the docks. Michigan Iron
Ore comes completely ready to run, and requires no extra downloading or installations.
