Title: Random central Ohio pictures
Post by: cjr9703 on November 09, 2009, 12:39:07 AM
It's been a while since I've actively shared any pictures, so here goes.

The first couple rounds are from 2008.

#1 - NS 304 eastbound having passed the Worthington diamonds in late April.  This is a personal favorite spot of mine.  Wish I had better light for an SD60.


The last three are part of a mini-road trip taken to Marion on 4/27/08.  

#2 - Eastbound 13V crosses Bellefontaine Ave in Marion, Ohio.  

#3 - 12V heads the other direction right afterward.  I may have posted this shot here before, but I redited it.  Nucor Steel is in the background.

#4 - I caught this unknown westbound in Prospect, Ohio.  (hope posting CSX is OK)

As a side note - from what I've read, 12V and 13V no longer run between Pittsburgh and Columbus.

These next four were taken in August 2008 during a one day trip:


#1 - Eastbound 10M approaches Oakland Park Ave in the morning

#2 - Short-lived Roadrailer 249 follows right behind

#3 - After this I headed north to Marion where I caught WB NS 357 just south of town.

#4 - I waited for a long time for this afternoon picture of CSX Q33602 in Bellefontaine, Ohio.

#1 - Unknown eastbound in May

#2 - Eastbound 194 in July

#3 - Another unknown eastbound in August at the same exact spot (this photo got 'puzzled')

#4 - Another shot of 194, but taken in August a little further west up the line near Wilson Bridge Rd.

One last 2008:


#1 - Unknown WB slowly passes a coal train on the ground in Flint, Ohio in August.  (date - 8/21/08)

On to 2009:


#3 - Another shot of an unknown eastbound at Cooke Rd in February.

#4 - Skip ahead to June -  and yet another unknown eastbound at Wilson Bridge Rd.

More summer '09; all taken on the Sandusky line.  First three are from Worthington (again).

#1 - Eastbound 375 on 7/12/09

#2 - Eastbound  853 followed 2o minutes later.  I played around with these shots in photoshop a little more than usual.

#3 - A couple weeks later I caught this old Conrail Dash-8 on the point of 304.  


Skipping ahead:

#4 - on to Labor day where I caught eastbound NS 857 crossing the diamonds at AC in Marion.

Now for October:

#1 - More Conrail blue, this time along the Western Branch just south of downtown Columbus.  Didn't catch the train ID, but these loads were an unusual sight.

#2 - A week later I caught even more Conrail blue at Cooke Rd.  (train NS 304)


Back to Worthington:

#3 - NS 18M heads eastbound on 10/22/09

#4 - Same spot a couple days later; better light, and an overall better attempt at this unknown eastbound.
