The mist/fog makes for an entirely different almost-unreal feeling.

Nice series of photos.I was rather surprised of the number of trains on NS.The former NKP is busier east  of CLE than west???
Do they hop on and off at the Cloggsville connection? Thanks

Rich, yes, this line east of Cleveland the ex. NKP is busier then west of Cleveland. Only main freights that travel west of Cleveland on that line through Rocky River is 316 & 149.   310 & 309 used to, until they go switched to Elkhart.   Any intermodal comes from or goes to, takes the NS line back on Rockport Yard and heads towards Interbelt Bridge in Cleveland through The Flats.

Thanks for the photos of the turnout car and transfer caboose.
