At the diesel facility a BNSF unit is being worked on. GP39 #4287 in the background and GP38-2 #2500 More    Date: 01/14/22 19:42 Re: Join us for a trip to Willard Ohio 06/16/2006 Author: WLE2679 Slug set pauses on the west end of the yard. BNSF units make a pick up at the eastbound hump. Nice B40-8 as the second unit. This was a train that made a pick up and continued onto Selkirk.

Most of those scenes are completely gone now, as CSX has stripped away any major role for Willard. No humps in use. Many trains operate thru without changing crews. Some block swapping. Little car repair. Many many jobs abolished.
