Ill be honest I have no idea what the history behind this end cab is, and Im too lazy to go look to see what it is on the Mad River Website. |

NKP 757 |
| Description: |
Hands down what was the most shocking to us was to see NKP 757, the resident Berkshire, sitting outside. This is the first time Ive ever seen it, as it is usually kept in the shed. Must have been brought out for the weekend. Its true that TJ brings luck to these trips! |

BNSF 7066 |
| Description: |
NS 267 snuck through the Mini Plant northbound on the Sandusky District while we were looking at the museum equipment. A solo BNSF GEVO is the headend power. Not quite as exciting as yesterdays 267 but still pretty neat nonetheless. |

Junky PC F Unit |
| Description: |
It appears the owner of this private collection of equipment just down the road from the museum property has finally had enough of people coming down here. "No Trespassing" has been spraypainted over what was left of the PC logo on the nose. Almost looks like someone tried to re-do it but it didnt work out so well. |

NS 18M sits on the staging siding on the Fremont Side just northwest of the Mini Plant. Train was completely shut off so we assumed that it would not be moving for a while. |

RTEX 4006 |
| Description: |
The only train out and about on the Fostoria District between Fostoria and Bellevue was NS 302, which would work Fostoria anyway. Despite having nothing nearby, CSX was no busier, so we decided to follow NS. We made a brief stop in Maple Grove to get shots of the Maple Grove Stone switcher. |

CSX 3236 |
| Description: |
NS 302 was already working the yard so we knew we werent going to be able to get any shots of it, but thankfully some static came to life on CSX, then eventually clear talking, so we raced down to Bascom where we grabbed M215 eastbound by the grain elevator. |

CSX 7237 |
| Description: |
CSX M634 had come into Fostoria to work the C&O yard, but other than that things were very quiet in the "hotspot" town, so we just went over and grabbed some shot of the CSX local power. Not sure if this is being used as one of the yard dogs, but if I had to guess it is. Very sad. |

More appropriate local power sits just south of the big GE by a lot more junk in the yard. Too bad the two units couldnt have swapped places. |

PREX 3001 |
| Description: |
CSX had completely died off after I016. I171 was preparing to leave Deshler when we got around Holgate, so we knew we had some time to kill. We made it to Defiance and decided to stop at the NDW Yard to get some shots of the power. PREX 3001 was up front and center. |

We couldnt find the Santa Fe unit in the yard so we drove down a little further and found it sitting almost at the CSX interchange. Ive never personally seen NDW put power this close to the interchange, but maybe they were preparing for interchange work for Monday on Friday. |

BNSF 5535 |
| Description: |
We went back to the other side of town to fill up with gas and grab I171 before making a b-line toward Muncie. This would be the final train TJ and I would catch over the trip. And what a trip it was! Could not have asked for anything better! A weekend at Great Wolf Lodge, filled with great trains, with one of my best friends. Cant wait until next years boys trip! |

NS 3389 |
| Description: |
Before the day was completely spent, I grabbed food in Muncie and dashed toward Redkey where I heard L80 working. Unfortunately, despite being the only one in line at Burger King, my meal took near 15 minutes to get out to me, and I ended up missing the train running through downtown Redkey. If I wouldnt have stopped to get food I would have closed the trip on a really good note, but seeing a train on this end of the Frankfort District in any kind of daylight in rare in a way. I grabbed the train (now L50) about 2 miles east of town with some wind turbines in the background. What a trip! |
