The trip home, the long way. Part 8
Author: SP6190

The next morning we headed west again, although for us this meant going south. Not far out of Belleview Ohio we came across the NW 675 north. On the back end is a brand new bright red NW cab. The NW 675 meet the NW 1559 south at this siding.

The NW1559 will also meet the NW 6113 north at this siding. On the rear end of the 6113 are to ex -Wabash cabs. Then at Bucyrus we find the freshly painted CR 5831 which the crew has kindly spotted for us.

At Marion we find the C&O 6061 heading north with a local train. Actually moving west now, we catch the NW 4129 working the old Akron Canton & Youngstown at Delphos OH. From Delphos it was on to Logansport IN, where we caught set of Conrail (PC) power just pulling into the service tracks.

Heading a bit south west we caught the L&N GP18 901 doing some switching at Lafayette. Heading west again we find the PC 7924 crossing the TP&W at Kentland IN.
