After chasing the Ohio Central System’s MILL train down the Cadiz Branch (that footage will be part of a larger project down the road), we got word of W&LE train 213 departing Hopedale. We tried beating it to Pittsburgh Junction but alas were beat by mere seconds. We raced to Jewett Ohio, where we knew they would have to stop to get permission onto the jointly owned OHCR/WE portion of the once mighty Pennsylvania Railroad Panhandle Line. The consist today would be a rainbow of mismatched paint scheme EMD SD40-2s, six to be exact. Come join us, as we give chase westbound from Jewett to Bolivar Ohio.

2:25 I meant to say 6348… Somehow that slipped past me in editing… sorry!

Great video, I always enjoy your Wheeling and Lake Erie videos.

Awesome catches

@countryroadrailproductions2008 6 месяцев назад

Great video. I've always wondered where they load the coke hoppers, and I bet their picked up in Mingo, so they would probably be loaded in that area, but idk, anyhow, keep up the great work

@CDROM-lq9iz 6 месяцев назад

Fun fact about that 6348, it's currently the last locomotive on the Wheeling roster that still sports the EMD leasing scheme.

@jeffstrains 6 месяцев назад

If I had to guess they’ll probably repaint it at some point. 6314 was just repainted and renumbered into 7026 W&LE/OLS not too long ago.

@CDROM-lq9iz 6 месяцев назад

@jeffstrains that 7026 hasn't even seen the mainline yet. That said, I don't think the 6348 is next on the chopping block for an overhaul.

@northernohiorailfanningpro8899 6 месяцев назад

To my understanding the rebuild/repaint program will go on a temporary halt now that 7026 is completed, so 6348 should be safe for a while lol.

@CDROM-lq9iz 6 месяцев назад

@@northernohiorailfanningpro8899 That's basically what I've heard. (Hopefully I don't get myself in trouble for saying this) It's less that they won't be overhauling any more locomotives, and more that they aren't (at the moment) planning on making any more PTC locomotives. There are still locomotives getting work done, but most of them will be remote installs/upgrades. Don't hold me to this (I'm not in charge of these decisions) but I think the next locomotive due for an overhaul is the 2662.

@CDROM-lq9iz 6 месяцев назад

Funny I mentioned the 2662 possibly being next because it's at the dock. Probably waiting for the yard to take it to where it's gonna be rebuilt.
