Hense, why I said M-14 to US 23. And with the derailment at New Haven might be a big plug. All New Haven traffic is probably having to get re-routed on the NYC to Butler, then south on the Wabash. The silver lining in all this is NS has both the Oak Harbor connection and the new wye they just built near Sandusky? to ease traffic on and off and around.railohio wrote:Two routes that do not intersect.

It's this weekend in Fostoria, and even I (yes) am planning to show up Saturday.
Don't tell Pat C. I'll be there -- I might even bring my brother (if I can get him out on probation... from his wife...) but hoping to see many of you.
Trains rule, man.

The crossing on the west side of the park at Deshler crossing the SW wye is currently tore out, they are replacing ties. The only way in/out is coming in from the east side. FWIW take that crossing really slow, it's pretty rough.

I was thinking that we could all get a good game of football or frisbee going at Fostoria or Deshler. If anyone thinks about it, please throw an extra ball in your car before you head out.
See y'all there.

I don't currently own a football. My last one was eaten by a rouge lawnmower. Find a Wal-Mart, see you this evening!~Z~ wrote:Good good... y@, bring football if you have one... no one grabbed one yet.
