▶︎ A little story about me: I am a retired shop teacher, I spent 36 years teaching Graphic Arts, Vocational Printing Trades, Photography along with extra duties like Drivers Education, & Yearbook Advisor.
I started teaching shop in the fall of 1974. We had seven full time shop teachers. (Industrial Education)
Auto Shop
Construction • Built A House
Drafting, Mechanical & Architectural
Graphic Arts
Small Engines • Marine & Lawn
Metal Shop
Wood Shop
In the late 90’s Industrial Education had to deal with new state guidelines called: Core Curriculum. This put a strong emphasis on the college prep program for all Michigan Students. Needless to say the students had no room in the school day for elective classes and this put Industrial Education out of business
I also took shop classes in High School. Mr. Pasternak and Mr. Mathers were my high school shop teachers and they got me started at Central Michigan University to become a Michigan Shop Teacher.
I would not want to be a high school student today. No shop classes.

Hi Gary, another fine video. Not too many of those turn tables around in the country anymore. There’s one down in Los Angeles here on the Amtrak yard that was part of the southern pacific way back in the day. Looking forward to 1225 up and running again soon hopefully you catch that on video. Still hot and summery over here in SoCal thanks for sharing .🌴😁.🚂👍🙂
🌴 Hi Ron of southern California: Yes: Had fun out rail-fanning for this video. Fun to see a turntable in action. Been in the 70's here in the Great State of Michigan. The birthplace for plactic palm trees. Take care. Gary ✅
Thanks Gary

Kool stuff! Time for a turn table on your layout for sure, Gary.
Hi George: That would be cool! - Thanks for watching from Tennessee. ✅
Awesome video!' I'm a fan of the GLC and Pere Marquette 1225. I wondered why I hadn't seen the 1225 all summer. I'm about 60 to 90 minutes from Owosso.
There used to be a turntable in the Wyoming, Mi. yard back in the Pennsylvania Railroad Era, but was torn out somewhere around the end of the steam engines I believe.
Hi Dennis: This was shot in June 2022. I think it will be ready for the fall color trips. 🚂
Excelente
Hi Paco: Many thanks - ✅
Very nice video Gary! Been a while since I was in Owosso, it was the TSBY last time I was there.
