CSX Location Needed

Unread post by NYC3001 »

Back in 1988, I was railfanning with two friends in the Toledo area. We spotted this approaching CSX freight train, and decided to take some photos of it. Does anyone have a clue as to what grade crossing these photos were taken at?

On the right side in the first photo, you can see a sign that is the 19 mile marker.

Tracy Road, just west of Stanley on the Toledo Terminal.

dti407 already nailed it and even linked a couple pictures :D

Thanks for posting those shots - it's neat to see it!

This particular one probably best approximates the same view as your first shot:
