A day of trains in and around Toledo.
First stop is the Amtrak station.
1. The westbound Lake Shore #49 arrives, and the Lake Cities #353 departs for Detroit and points West.
Much of the day was spent near Vickers Junction, were Conrail's ex NYC mainline crossed CSX's Toledo Terminal line.
2. A pair of westbound Conrail merchandise trains.
3. An eastbound Conrail piggyback.
4. Westbound Conrail with some interesting side dump cars loaded with large rocks.
5. Southbound CSX power movement with what looks like 4 SD50s and a SD35 from the docks.
6. CNW & UP power on a westbound Conrail merchandise train. Lots of autoracks on this one.
7. Eastbound Conrail double stacks - TV200
8. Eastbound Conrail dimensional train. An unusal mix of oversized loads on this one.
9. Two more Conrail westbounds. First an intermodal, and then a merchandise train.
10. A quick stop at Wallbridge where a southbound CSX trains heads into their yard there. The 3rd unit is #2002, the GP38 named the "All American Diesel" by Trains magazine.
Late in the afternoon I headed up to Alexis tower on the North side of town. Alexis was the junction of the Conrail & CSX lines from Detroit to Toledo as well as the Ann Arbor RR.
11. Northbound CSX freight passes the tower and heads under the Alexis Rd bridge.
12. Northbound NS freight heads under I-75 near the Ann Arbor RR yard. This is a couple of miles south of Alexis.
13. Back at the tower, a southbound Conrail freight passes.
14. A GTW southbound comes off the Ann Arbor tracks and onto the Conral to head into Toledo.
15. The NS northbound seen earlier passes the tower, followed by a CSX northbound.
16. Conrail northbound heads for Michigan with an interesting mix of power, including an SD50, a GP15 & a yard switcher.
