Title: interesting day at oak harbor!
Post by: jettrainfan on August 19, 2010, 03:17:12 PM
So far, 4 hours of action with a train averaged at about 1 every 20 minutes. The first was a mixed freight that highballed up the bridge that goes over the chicago line. Its a single track and runs through town. The hill for the bridge is quite steep! After that, intermodel after intermodel...then a geep came with a yellow crane parked it on a siding. we went to a bussiness to film it in action and was great! Even got a rare oppurtunity to catch a freight highball up the slope and get the crane too!. After it left, the most surprising leader came with the only freight to far go under and not over, a ATSF dash 9! Excellent shot of that :) after a stop for a flurry, came back and the 2 ex. Rio grande tunnel motors owned by wheeling and lake erie passed over the bridge! Excellent day so far and hope to see more! (Hopeing for a CN, leaving at 7 and its only 3:16!)
