Military move on CSX today (Ohio)
Author: EL833

Wasn't going to venture out on this generally crappy day, but got word of an eastbound military equipment train. CSX train S588 with a BNSF unit on each end, Akron, Ohio, 03-11-2023.

For any interested, same scene (but with a train on the long gone EL) back in 1975. Old camera, color print film scan.

That's a real good then-and-now comparison from the exact same location.

Buildings on the left former Firestone tire plant?

Roger, thanks for the before-and-after view. The last time I was at that location was in  the early 70's, switching cars from the E-L McCoy Street Yard to the PRR interchange track.
