Eastern Railroad Discussion > Bellevue and Along the Sandusky District

Here are a few from an outing about month ago to Bellevue and along the Sandusky District of Norfolk Southern. The latter extends from its namesake city on Lake Erie in Ohio to Columbus.

Photo 1: The surprise of the day was an Illinois Central SD70 leading an inbound train off the Toledo District.

Photo 2: Union Pacific leads an inbound passing Southwest Street.

Photo 3: A trio of UP power leads an outbound train bound for the Fostoria District.

Great coverage. Strangely your photo of auto racks seen through auto racks is so different and creative that it is my favorite.
