stay in the hive and help the queen make honey or whatever they do... These shots tell a story that I've never seen in Fostoria. Thanks for posting these. John. Date: 10/06/15 17:44 Re: Fostoria, Ohio From Above Author: ns1000 GOOD stuff...!! Thanks for sharing.

Date: 10/06/15 18:16 Re: Fostoria, Ohio From Above Author: Thumper In the southest connection photo in the lower right is an abandoned bridge,
looks like two tracks. The purpose of same? And in looking at Google tracks take off fromthe south end of E. Lafayette street for? There is some form of a former junction near Lafayette street, for starters. Date: 10/06/15 18:24 Re: Fostoria, Ohio From Above Author: lne655 Very nice, been there several times and never noticed the bridge east of the southeast connection. Having read the Trains article and seeing their map I'm going to assume this is where the NYC crossed?
Great shots. Date: 10/06/15 19:05 Re: Fostoria, Ohio From Above Author: Forever-Railfan-45 B&O and the NKP...

Bill Miller Galt, ON Date: 10/06/15 20:57 Re: Fostoria, Ohio From Above Author: 3rdswitch AWESOME views of a great place to visit. It would really help if they could just put some piles of dirt or small towers in each corner to get a little elevation but first things first. All in all one of the better viewing places I have visited though.

Date: 10/07/15 05:01 Re: Fostoria, Ohio From Above Author: EL-SD45-3632 Very nice coverage on a different perspective. A much cleaner view point for taking pictures, AKA, no junk in the way. That is the biggest issue with Fostoria, tight photo angles and not the best of backdrop for photos. Fostoria has been my favorite spot for railfanning for 40 years however, I do miss the old blue boat "Eriestible" that sat in the parking lot of the meatpacking plant from the first time that I visited Fostoria.

Date: 10/08/15 10:16 Re: Fostoria, Ohio From Above Author: JUTower Are you able to aim the camera & take photos via smartphone? I ask because I know some of the older quadcopters really only allowed you to put the camera on timer (Taking a photo every 15 sec) and you take what you get.
