Marion-Fostoria, Ohio February-May 1993

Including sequences at Caledonia and Bucyrus. Before anyone asks -- the Triple Crown trains were originally an agreement with Conrail and NS. That is why you will see Triple Crown trains in Fostoria with Conrail power.

I like those 86-foot high cube auto parts cars at 31:00-32:00. I know people who have never seen them, but in Ohio and Michigan they were standard fare.

That was the most awesome rs3l doppler effect that I have ever heard.

brings back great memories thank you

[@markhayes6407]

Great collection of the vintage locomotives and railcars. I gave you a sub and thumbs up.

[@bradleymcwilliams6348]

Well this video officially settles it. '93 was the last great year to watch trains. Funny how it doesn't seem like that long ago, but when you see the difference between then and now it's kind of shocking. Would've loved to visit these areas back then to see stuff. Now? Nah...

Bunch of fresh long-runner flats

I like seeing the Conrail slug at 105:00

Excellent!

[@davidvanschaick5565]

Good Stuff RMA and real trailer trains !!

This was the END of railroading .... I can’t believe this was 30 years ago already. I miss CONRAIL and all of the SD40’s .... the only thing I don’t like about Marion is the trains are always coasting by in dynamic breaks. I prefer to hear locomotives roaring up grades at slow speeds

[@christophercarey3232]

Do you have any videos of Toledo, Peoria, and Western?

[@joetarantine4075]

What are the locations at 1:04:54 and 1:05:37?

[@RailroadMediaArchive]

1:04:54 looks like New Bloomington. 1:05:37 is at the Scott's plant outside Marysville on the Toledo Branch (called Scottslawn by the railroad -- in fact the block station was still standing at the time).

[@joetarantine4075]

Thank you

[@MITracks]

Did they hit someone @19:30?

[@notarotomwithhair5637]

Did conrail ever own a line through fostoria?

[@RailroadMediaArchive]

They operated the remnant of a New York Central branch from Berwick to Toledo (Stanley) for a few months after their April 1, 1976 start up. The last train was in December 1976.
