If I wind up in heaven I hope there are some tracks close by. Heaven on earth here and the roar of power better than harps. |

Identity crisis |
Description: |
I suspect many roads in years past effected a unique signal system as much for promulgating their individual identity as anything. B&O sure got it right in their classic CPLs. A shame bottom line economics wipes out esthetics and heritage in its inexorable march. |

Description: |
Some homes perched on the mountainside along Detour Road have spectacular views. I like it from down here as the 329 passes Hansrote with empty hoppers. |

CSX 439 |
Description: |
CSX 439 leads a westbound manifest through Deshler, OH past the former B&O Dispatchers Office. Back in the late 50s, TRAINS Magazine did a great article about the dispatchers job here, that controlled a lengthy stretch of the north-south line from Toledo. |

More endangered species |
Description: |
The former C&O in Ohio is a bastion for that roads unique signal system - a system that seemed to place signals in profusion. I traveled by night from Magnolia, WV to Vaunces, OH with the hope of photographing some of C&Os classic signals, however, there was a strong front moving in and, although mild, the skies were overcast. CSX 5119 has empty coal cars returning to the Appalachian mines. |
