OMLX 1701 |
| Description: |
The NOW shoves the remainder of their train down one of the sidings in Tiffin and prepares to call it a day. The entire day, we had been tracking a very rare movement on the CSX Toledo Branch. CSXs "GMS-2", the track geometry car, was making its way north to Toledo from Columbus on the former Conrail line. The geometry car hardly ever makes it off the east coast, so we knew it was something that we needed to track down. We got this last shot of the NOW and parted ways. A very successful chase! |

CSX GMS-2 |
| Description: |
We decided to jump over to Galatea and then head south. We werent totally sure we had missed it yet, but chatter on the NS Fostoria District confirmed that the car had yet to go through the diamond north of Findlay. So, we made a B-Line there. Sure enough, a green signals welcomed us at the diamond, and so did the car. We grabbed some shots of it with the wind turbines in the background to begin our chase. |

CSX W002 takes the next siding at Dunbridge, which is guarded by a very interesting dwarf. I thought it was an original NYC dwarf. But apparently it was replaced in 2015. Cant say Ive ever seen a CSX dwarf that looked like this. |

CSX W002 continues north through the siding at Dubridge, passing a very neat concrete structure. Not sure what it was at one time, but whatever it was originally used for it is not used for that purpose anymore. |

CSX GMS-2 |
| Description: |
We decided to set up for one final shot at Reitz Road north of Dowling. A lone tree stands in the field to the north. I decided to only shoot a frame of the train going away as the sun, nor the shot in general, was very forgiving for a northbound movement that time of day. Despite the tree not being very colorful, it still did make for a nice frame. After this shot, we called it a chase and headed back into Bowling Green for some dinner at Frickers. After supper, Wyatt and I parted ways and I made my way back for home. A pretty awesome day in Ohio with a good friend! |

PREX 3054 |
| Description: |
The day wasnt completely over, however. While driving back toward home on US 24 I noticed box cars on the ND&W at Jewell. I went into town and sure enough there was an engine attached with those cars. Ive never seen the ND&W outlaw here before, but maybe the Patriot takeover of Pioneer has changed some things on the ND&W. Regardless, I grabbed a few shots of the PREX 3054 and hit the road once more. I got home around 8 PM and was ready for another full day of trains the following day! An enjoyable first full day of vacation! |
