Railfan Friday | Episode:22 | Grafton, Ohio

What's up railfans! I came to Grafton Ohio right out side of Cleveland just for railfan friday! I'm on the csx greenwich sub wich runs from berea Ohio to greenwich Ohio. thanks for tuning in enjoy the video!
Grafton is a village in Lorain County, Ohio, United States, along the East Branch of the Black River. The population was 6,636 at the 2010 census. The Lorain Correctional Institution and several other prisons are located in and near Grafton.
The CSXT Greenwich Subdivision is part of what once was the Conrail Indianapolis Line, which has been divided into three CSX subdivisions:
the Greenwich SD, Mount Victory SD (CP-80 to CP-138), and Indianapolis Line SD (CP-138 to IP 273.5). This is all NYC Big Four territory, and was
NYC's link from New York City to Columbus, Cincinnati, and St. Louis.
This particular stretch of the Big Four was originally chartered as the Cleveland Columbus and Cincinnati Railway Company on March 14, 1836. However, the first through train from Cleveland to Columbus didn't run until February 21, 1851.
The CC&C Rwy was consolidated with the Bellefontaine Railroad Company
just a few days later on March 3, 1851, and together the two formed the Cleveland Columbus Cincinnati and Indianapolis Railway Company in 1868.
In 1889 the Cleveland Columbus Cincinnati & Indianapolis Railway Company was consolidated with the Cincinnati Indianapolis St Louis
& Chicago Railway Company and the Indianapolis & St Louis Railway Company to form the CLEVELAND CINCINNATI CHICAGO AND St LOUIS RAILWAY COMPANY (aka "the Big Four"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the New York Central Railroad.
Ownership passed into the hands of Penn Central and then Conrail. Today it serves as CSXT's link from New York City to St. Louis and Chicago, and remains a very busy piece of railroad.
Thanks for watching

Pretty cool to see a video from the town I live in

[@methaqualone5191]

Some years ago I knew someone who moved to Grafton about five years ago, from what I heard. Her being 6'3" she must really stand out in such a small town I would imagine.
