Eastern Railroad Discussion > 14 hours at Sandusky, Ohio-You Bet!Date: 06/23/17 12:37 14 hours at Sandusky, Ohio-You Bet! Author: bath_wildcat After having the weekend off last week and the weekend prior (wedding in Lima, Ohio) I went out here trackside to see how busy it really gets on the weekend. I was not disappointed at all, however I am starting this from the time Amtrak 49 rolled into Sandusky, Ohio, as it was daylight enough to do some Photos. I also have the logs from overnight if any one is interest in me posting them as well. The old cell I shot these with has since taken its last breath, however I will be shooting with my new Moto G4 Play. It has the same resolution of the old cell, so I'm gonna see how it works here soon.
Westbound on 1 at 0556. Amtrak 49 87 86 90220 NS 4044 sitting here in Sandusky, Ohio. Ironically the very same locomotive that I caught leading 23K with 4002 trailing May 24th. Anyone have any idea why its still here shut down in Sandusky, Ohio? Westbound on 1 at 0626. Intermodal 8047 8023 6798 Eastbound on 2 at 0626.
