WE 4003 |
| Description: |
I have had my eyes on documenting rare signals this year, in particular tilt boards. The Ohio Central Railroad still operates a handful of these signals at their intersecting diamonds with other railroads. One of which I stumbled across my last visit to Brewster, OH by accident. Because of that, I decided to make a full trip out of it today to finally get a train actually passing it. The RJ Corman and the Ohio Central operate the tilt board on the south side of Justus, OH and operate almost daily to the massive Wheeling and Lake Erie terminal in Brewster to interchange cars. However, according to the local railfans, it is a pretty rare occurrence to manage to capture all 3 short lines running in the same day. Prior to driving out, I was told that RJ Corman had cars to interchange with the Wheeling today and would go OD at 0700 out of New Philadelphia. Unfortunately for me, Brewster is a near 3 and a half hour drive from my house, so I had to leave my house no later than 0330. It was a very tiring drive, but I hoped it would be fulfilling. While the Corman and the OHCR only run one train most days, the Wheeling has several ops that run in and out of the Brewster Terminal in both directions, which would help fill the gap between arriving and seeing the train by the tilt board. It was a foggy morning, and being able to see the railroad tracks and even the road was a struggle, but I managed to arrive in to Brewster around 0700. I had not heard anything from the Corman over the radio, so I decided to sit along the Wheeling to see if I could get some quick morning Wheeling action. Not too long after my arrival, I heard a train preparing to clear a warrant from the east side of the yard. I rushed over there and saw the headlight from WE 625, the night job from Navarre to Brewster, preparing to come back into the yard with a single hopper. WE 4003 was the sole power for todays train. I was quite pleased to see that it was one of the SD40-2s that had the completely black frame. Not a lot of Wheeling SD40-2s have this scheme. |

WE 4003 |
| Description: |
A closer shot of WE 4003. I had hoped to get a very foggy morning shot, but the rising sun was quickly burning away the remaining fog that was left. There was some left, however. An automatic switch is thrown and the train continues into the yard. It appears that the stripes on the front have a slightly darker color of orange as well. |

OHCR 4094 |
| Description: |
In addition to neat signals around diamonds, the OHCR also still sports a fleet of B23-7 locomotives, some of the only ones left running in revenue service in the United States. It was a shame when I was told they more than likely would not run to Brewster during my visit. With the next Wheeling train coming from the east and still being back in Akron, I decided to head over to the diamond in Justus since Corman was still showing no signs of life. I sat for a while until I heard the very familiar Saint Albans dispatch tone go off over the radio. Sure enough, it was OHCR CNL-1 clearing up a track warrant from Coschoctan to Brewster. It made me sort of discouraged to find out I had missed them coming north by the tilt board, but at least I knew I would be able to get them coming south by it. After talking with the Wheeling dispatch, CNL1 came onto the Wheeling main with 3 units and no cars. It was a relief to see the Super 7 on the front. The added SD40-2s signified that they would be picking up a rock train that came out of Carey (more than likely from that 728 from earlier). While I would have preferred a corporate maroon SD40-2 to be the southbound leader, the CP SD40-2 is certainly better than anything in G&W orange! |

The train stops momentarily over the RJ Corman to clear up their track warrant and to let the Ohio Central get settled in the yard. Even after all these years that Wheeling has owned these lease units, it is still very possible to see these mix/matched consists. |

OHCR 3305 |
| Description: |
With 79 rock cars in tow and a single lumber car bringing up the rear, OHCR CNL1 comes back east out of the WE Brewster Terminal and back to home rails by the ex-NKP seachlight guarding the diamond with the RJ Corman. Ive always found the diamond at Justus to be quite interesting. B&O CPLs guard both sides for the RJ Corman, while on the WE side, a vader dwarf guards eastbound movements while this searchlight signals guards westbound movements. Cant find a lot of diamonds like that in the US! |
