    I grew up a couple miles from the C&O mainline out of Columbus that went up to Toledo. In 1980 I was 12 years old and me and my best friend spent hours and hours during those long summer days down at the tracks watching trains go by either at the Linworth Rd. crossing or the Snouffer Rd. crossing. Wish I could go back in time to watch those Chessie Geeps and their cabooses again.

    I'm always impressed by the work of those who knew how to make the most of the limitations of 8mm/Super8 film. In-camera editing is a lost art. Enjoying your films!

    I would love to see videos of the towers at Pennor Crossing, Piqua, and Bradford...

    The way those trailer carriers sway it’s amazing they didn’t derail more often with all that weight on top

    Is that Conrail train at Tiffin running on the Toledo Line?

      @RailroadMediaArchive  6 лет назад +1

      Yes. It crossed the B&O on a series of switches as opposed to a diamond.

    I think one reason why these towers were still operating was because the railroads didn’t have the money to automate these crossings.

    Shame good work lost. Location and year would add greatly to viewing. Thanks.

    Was this filmed by Todd Miller / Paul Geiger?

      This was filmed by Todd. You can actually hear Paul on the block line at Frankfort St. working at Buckeye.

      Jmream2 besides AC which is a museum now, no. Dunkirk tower on the PRR Fort Wayne line still stands.

      Jmream2 MD cabin as well in Marion is still standing, a mile north of AC on the C&O

      I’ve been to Marion many times, but I never knew about MD! Looks like a CTC panel that had two center sidings in its purview.

      @@fakecumberland MD controlled the center siding at MD, and the now gone one at MA Cabin (the current MA Cabin was the west end of the siding).
