Re: My version of Penn Central

What part of the docks would these go to? Need to know so we can make some room. I'm no expert on the docks, but I believe these would go where CSX gets some of their Ballest trains sometimes. The stone/limestone would be loaded in boats and go off to points north into Canada. Ok it would be routed...

Re: Delphos & Eastern RR

I thought Central Soya was on the south side of the PRR in Delphos along the NKP line(yes I'm using the original owners names for each line)? Or was that some other elevator I'm thinking of that's near Landeck? I have a cab ride video shot by Keith Lehman on this line from Bluffton to Delphos back ...

Re: Delphos & Eastern RR

Delphos And Eastern is thinking about operating a short section of track from Delphos to Landeck, OH to service Jonesco Elevator, as well as possibly extending the line to west of Venedocia, OH to serve Hemker Grain. Nothing is set in stone, but it sounds like a possibility.

Re: Maumee Southern Railroad

Ok, TSCR handles everything going in and out of Andersons to we will just drop them off on the lead so they can pick them up tomorrow morning when the yard job runs up there.
OK then. Sounds good. They'll make out on Friday's G001 then, correct?

Re: DTCX Leasing Co.

How are your GP10s? What paint are they in, what are their HP, and how good of a condition overall are they in? May consider leasing one if the need were to arise.

Welcome to the group! I run the Penn Central(PC) on here and since you originate your line at Delphos, you can interchange with my railroad there.
