Update on new NS connection at Vermilion, OH
Author: Griffith_Daze

Work is progressing on the new Norfolk Southern connection west of Vermilion, Ohio. First photo was taken in April. Second photo was taken on Sunday. The rumor around town was that the tree shown in photo #1 was home to an eagle's nest, and work was delayed until everybody had left the nest. I don't know if that was true, but that tree was just removed within the last week or so.

A couple of pictures...:-p

Seriously - I am not sure they were allowed by law to remove the tree with the nest - eagles return to their nest year after year.

Seriously, what are we looking at is my question too. Is that a view looking west from Coen Road, like opposite of the present connection? Or what is the view of?

Isn't there already a connection at CP 222 with the Lake Div?  Which former NKP line is this?  Where will the new connection be in relation to 222 and which line will it connect with? Does either connection have anything to do with Bellevue?
Thanks!
