Saw your article. My family comes from Bevier and I had two uncles that worked for the Bevier and Southern. One was vice president and work in the corporate headquarters (old passenger (?) car) and the other was in charge of roundhouse. Often when we went to Bevier to visit familty we’d go down to the yard to see Uncle Harry and Uncle Grit. I remember in the mid 50′s Uncle Grit trying to get me to take a ride in the cab of one of the steam engines out to the mine. I was to scared to get in the cab! Oh, the mistakes we make…

Very interesting. I worked at the strip mine at Bevier in the late 1970s. It was a more modern operation. I now work on construction operating heavy equipment. very nice, thanks.
