Storage Train Goes Up Batavia Hill With SD40-2 & MP15DC. Railroad Switching On Huhtamaki Industrial Spur. Short Line Railroad Action On Cincinnati Eastern Railroad. This Train Is In Batavia, Ohio Just East Of Cincinnati. A trip was made to the Norfolk Southern interchange at Clare Yard. 8 cars were taken to Clare ( See Part 1 ) and 27 cars were picked up. This is Part 2.
First we see the train in downtown Batavia crossing over Main Street. Brush and weeds were recently cut at the location of the old train station. The brick station was removed sometime in the 90s. Now that the brush has been removed this is an excellent location for a video as you will see. This is the base of the hill.
Next we see the train crossing Summit Road near the top of the hill. This is a long curvy hill that took the train about 35 minutes to climb. You can drive it from the bottom to Summit road in about 5 minutes. There is a large pile of railroad ties here for future replacement.
I got gas and then stopped over at Curliss Road. They had just spotted the switcher on the Huhtamaki spur and were reversing back to the train. The SD40-2 pulled the front part of the train along with 4 boxcars that were going to Huhtamaki. The front part of the train went to Afton Yard and the switcher took the 4 boxcars to Huhtamaki. You will see the train shoving across Curliss Road at the other railroad crossing which is for Huhtamaki and Mount Carmel Group.
The storage cars and rest of the train were left at Afton Yard just a couple of miles east of Huhtamaki. The flat cars and tank cars are for storage. The gondola cars are for McCoy Lumber in Peebles. The train was not able to go past Afton due to a heat kink in the rail just east of Mount Orab. We had a couple of days that topped 90F and the rails got so hot that they kinked. The next day on Wednesday, June 7, crews were working on the damaged section of track.
