Fostoria Trip Report May 6 / May 7
Posted: Mon May 09, 2016 10:20 am
Did another overnighter in Fostoria last Friday / Saturday May 6 and May 7 ahead of driving up to Toledo for National Train Day. That means if anybody out there saw me, I was the crazy guy in the white Sonata with the full size video camera driving around like a madman trying to see every train through town and get the best video angle at the same time. As sweet as the Railpark is, sometimes I need to be on the south side of the B&O or the east side of the C&O to get the best sun. Saw 116 trains in 28 hours and missed 5. Hey, when you have 3 trains taking 3 different transfers all at the same time, there is only so much that can be done. Trip report below. Please feel free to correct any of my train I.D.'s if you notice a mistake. Did my best but couldn't always hear who was calling signals on the scanner. I am always open to correction.
