I'm guessing they'll go on the Toledo Sub via Deshler both ways?

I would bet it will be via the LIRC to see how the railroad looks 'now' and where improvements will be made. Then either Ridgeway or Marion. Time will tell I suppose.

That makes sense, since from what I was understanding they will have passengers until North Baltimore then it'll basically deadhead back to Jacksonville afterwards. Which I guess means it'll run down the Toledo Sub afterwards so they don't have to mess with the train/power. Just my guess based on what you said.

EDIT: Nevermind, looks like I didn't realize where the LIRC ran.. but how come the info that I saw in the chat over night mentioned via Cincy while they come up and go back down though?

And with the Toledo Sub a MofW mess in and around Lima, I doubt it will run this way, though, I could be wrong.

Could they still run this through Deshler on the B&O and avoid the Toledo Sub altogether, if that'd be the case?

Planned to run via Cincy/Deshler. Departing Louisville around 0745, Cincinnati 1215, and arriving NWO at 1745. After dropping off the brass, it will go back via the same routing.

This according to inside intel.

This is the exact thinking I was having, but what lines will it take to get up though - Toledo Sub, or some other route? If they do on the LIRC, it'd also make sense to run on the Toledo Sub for the same reasoning I'd guess.

It must be running Deshler to Hoytville or there was a lot of beautification work done for nothing between those two points. The flowers sure look pretty at each road crossing. LOL

No argument there. Too freaking hot in the garage to be doing my other hobbies. So I sit here partaking in my #1, correcting in the incorrect on the interwebs. :lol:

That means he did not run via the B&O to Cincinnati.
