Heavy Train With Classic Locomotives Goes Up The Hill, Abandoned Railroad Spurs For Grain Customer & Mixed Freight With 3 Big Locomotives. 2 Short Line Railroads In Same Day! Indiana & Ohio Railway Chase & Cincinnati Eastern Railroad Attacks The Williamsburg Hill. Railroad Crossings And Train Horns On Two Separate Branch Line Railroads In Ohio.
For the first time ever I filmed 2 short line railroads on the same day. The video starts with the Cincinnati Eastern Railroad, CCET, although I filmed the Indiana & Ohio Railway, IORY, first. I wanted to make sure that the best part of the video is first so I show the CCET train going up the steep and curvy hill in Williamsburg. I was on my way home when I was notified of the westbound train with grain, rock, railroad ties and a couple of storage cars. I got this train going through Williamsburg, Ohio on the Norfolk Southern Peavine Line. CCET leases 69 route miles from NS. Listen to the classic EMD locomotives working on the grade. The first locomotive is a GP15-1 and the second locomotive is an MP15DC.
My day actually started in Sabina, Ohio on the ex CSX Midland Sub obtained by Indiana And Ohio Railway in 2004. Unfortunately, the grain spurs in Sabina have been out of service for a long time and a section of track was recently removed at the railroad crossing next to the bike trail. It is sad for the railroad to lose this customer but on average railroads lose 10 percent of their customers a year. We see the grain customer, a couple of nonrailfans who didn't appreciate the train coming and we see the train running south towards Cincinnati. This train has plenty of big power leading the mixed freight.
Next, we go to Cozaddale, Ohio to film the other side of the I&O train at a railroad crossing. The train was booking here! Listen to the wheels clanking over a connection in the rail. This line has continuous welded rail that was installed in 1979. I was here when the sectional rail was replaced and I saw the first train to pass over the welded rail. This is an old Baltimore And Ohio Railroad line that was owned by CSX. When I was in high school at nearby Goshen, Ohio, this line had about 10 to 12 trains every day. I remember the old line side signals that are now long gone. In the mid 80s I lived right next to this line on Obannonville Road in Goshen Township. At that time it still had 6 to 8 trains a day. In 1985 the line was in danger of being abandoned and all the trains were removed from the line except for a train in each direction per day. That is also the same year that CSX stopped using cabooses. Not long after that Indiana & Ohio Railway started leasing the line in 1986. I actually rode Amtrak across this line about 1979 and I rode the Chessie Steam Special to Chillicothe, Ohio about 1978. I am going by my memory and it is possible I could have a year wrong although I doubt it. I could look up my pictures from back then.
Best radio frequencies are 160.860 for CCET and 161.220 for IORY along with 452.9375 for EOT on both lines. EOT frequency is a must for both lines along with 457.9375 for front of train. Both lines are tree tunnels. Lol
The day that I filmed this I caught the I&O at several other locations and I will post a video of that soon. It will include some interesting things along the line. Don't forget to see what the Live Action Pets are up to and the slide show from this video.
