Where EZ it?

[sd70accsxt700]

Time for another hint. Two part.

#1 This is just a few hundred feet away, and was part of a old elevator.


#2 Within a two hour drive from my house.

[Y@]

No Y@ is still closest with Toledo.

Is it somewhere on the old NKP Clover Leaf? Or the N&W between Toledo and LC?

[sd70accsxt700]

Nope but you are starting to get the right idea.

[Y@]

What direction away from Toledo is it?

[sd70accsxt700]

I wont tell you that but there are four letters to the name of the railroad.

[sd70accsxt700]

Ok a few more clues, and we will see what happens. First off this line became part of the great NYC, and also was the mainline for quite a few years. The direction is east of Toledo.

Ex-NYC Milbury-Fremont original mainline west to Toledo in Elmore, OH (and if that's wrong, perhaps Lindsey, OH?) Neat piece of former ROW... If I'm right, I can dig up a picture from Freemont looking NW down the old main (at the diamond where the rails are still in and NS still services).

Here's a "way back in the day" view of the old main in Elmore:



And the LS&MS station:



And the "Last train from Elmore" in 1952:

Not Elmore, but your backhand guess was right. Lindsey, Oh. Not sure what the first building was, but the second was part of the origonal elevator there. You wernt supposed to put the brige photo up, that was going to be one of my next "Where EZ it?"

Sorry to spoil your next one! Neat former line though...

[sd70accsxt700]

Rather then start a whole new thread, I will just add on to this.


Here is the next one, no clues to start, as I think one of the photos should narrow it down a lot. The first photos shows the old road bed, electrical boxes, and the base of the tower. It was actually a three way diamond, but I dont believe the tower controled the third diamond, as it was either a trolly or interurban ran down the middle of the street.

[slwapprslw]

Is it Burgoon, OH? The PRR/NKP crossed there.

[sd70accsxt700]

Wow that has to be a record or something. 8 min. Yes it is.

[TSB]

Sylvania, oops thats northwest.

[sd70accsxt700]

A for effort Mr. TSBY. Hope everything is going good in Florida.

Next one, a little harder.

[Shorthaul]

It's not Emmitsburg, MD, is it?

[sd70accsxt700]

No its in Ohio.

[MDH]

Elmore?

[sd70accsxt700]

No the bridge is still in place in Elmore. if its any of a hint, may be to much, but the "Deshler" gang should know.

[slwapprslw]

Is this the old bridge pier for the Findlay, Ft Wayne, & Western near Gilboa, OH?

[sd70accsxt700]

And Cass is two in a row, yes it is.
