    Several weeks ago somebody had footage from here but not of the yard itself for the most part. I've stopped by here several times and it was always super busy now it just looks like a storage facility. It's hard to make a comeback when things are this devastated. Thanks for the coverage W&LE always looks good no matter the location

      Thank you! If those autoracks weren't in storage the yard would be even more bare!

    Hollywood quality drone work (as usual) - bravo! It's great that an interesting regional like the Wheeling and Lake Erie hasn't yet been assimilated by the Borg at G&W.

      W&LE is a private company. Very hard to purchase a private company. Now... if they ever go public. But since W&LE has trackage/rights from Chicago to Baltimore - they could very well morph into a Class 1. I would wager that is their end game.

      @@SantaFeAllTheWay It's more complicated. This is not some small operation. And the "owners" is spread among banks, creditors and VC.

      @@SantaFeAllTheWay Sheesh... I don't know the specifics of W&LE but in GENERAL... it is harder (much harder) to gain control of a private company than a public one. OK??

    I believe that is the maximum speed that a WLE train ever moves at! Bring a book if you get stopped at a crossing. Nice drone work!

      In most instances the W&LE is a fast moving regional. Most of their track is 40mph, they can do 50 (or 60?) on CSX between New London and Willard Ohio.
