Beyond the unit you can see CSX track. The Wheeling & Lake Erie through this subsidiary keeps rail service alive in the Akron area. Both on former EL from Rittman to Ravenna and on the former ABBRR all around town here and in Akron. |

Running on what used to be the westbound. |
Description: |
The depot would've been to the left of this unit and 2 tracks removed from it. Beyond the bridge in the distance is the track to PPG. Whoever was the flagman on our local would have to walk out there and protect the move as we shoved against the current of traffic on the eastbound. |
