On May 27th, 2024, I ventured into the suburbs of Detroit to visit Cleveland Cliffs Dearborn Works, formally a part of the Ford River Rouge Complex. I'd been wanting to film Dearborn Works for quite a while, as there aren't many recent photos or videos of the railroad used the transport molten iron to the mill's BOF (Basic Oxygen Furnace). I was surprised to find quite a lot of action inside with switchers going about their duties. The track layout was pretty fascinating with how it cut through buildings and across roads. The freighter Lee A. Tregurtha also happened to be moored in the mill during my visit after unloading iron ore pellets. I hope to return to Dearborn when it's not so windy to film some other areas of the mill I didn't get a chance to capture!
