    That there is (or was) a Cleveland Harbor Railway is a revelation to me. The Indiana Harbor Belt carcasses were especially interesting to me as I see their successors often. Thanks for taking us on this interesting tour.

    At The Anderson-DuBose, lots of locos mostly looking in good order, but noteworthy that they are all 4-axle units that are now surplus, from CSX, UP etc etc. which I think is indicative to the fact that many RRs use 6 -axle power as yard units and still have the flexibility to use them in consist out of the yard too, not just on local jobs.

      Here’s one of the many fly over videos that prompted me to go there: ua-cam.com/video/oyAUhkkUPKU/v-deo.htmlsi=Etj1X8QEgsPRDr1G

    It's been a over year since I went to LTEX, interesting to see what's changed.

      When you were there did anyone give you a problem? I want to go back soon. Just wondering if I should make an attempt to speak with someone.

      Yes, it is. McDonald steel closed down? There were a few cars there and a few were leaving when we got there. Definitely wasn’t “hoppin” though.

    An interesting video showing the many diesel locomotives at McDonald Steel Corp. shows. Will these be repaired and sold again? The last part of the video is definitely junkyard. Thank you for showing and best regards.

      They repair, resell, scrap, part out and lease engines and switchers.

    You're aware that it's illegal to hold a phone or any other electronic device in your hand while driving in Ohio? Have some consideration for other road users.

      First scene where we catch a train I was neither A, driving, or B on the road! I was on the side of the road filming. Not against the law. At the first location, key word “location” we were on private property. NOT ON A ROAD! Did you think all those engines were parked next to a road or something? At the second location I was out of my truck for the first few scenes, then on PRIVATE PROPERTY!
      Your argument holds no weight. So if you like trains just enjoy the video.
