When driving Maura to school last week– Freight Train at Railroad Crossing on way to school video click link to watch – 93 seconds long- before Sunrise.
High school starts early. It was a short train.
Lewis Center Ohio
The stationary red caboose, built in 1923, is now a Train Observation Station.
We’d just left the Worthington Community Center Pool, walking across the parking lot and heading home for supper. And we heard the whistle. A train! (Click for short video)
I thought there might be two cabooses but no caboose at the end of today’s freight train. Laura was good to wait.

Location location location. Isn’t that the rule of real estate? It’s EVERYTHING!
Maura took this photo of a brand new development, built along the active railroad tracks. She says I could sit on the porch and knit and watch the freight trains go by. Heaven forbid if there’s a derailment! What were they thinking with this plan? No occupancy yet but I can’t imagine anyone rushing to buy one of these units.
Granddaughter Maura’s lacrosse game was late afternoon. A freight train, actually two, barreled by.
This is the East Liberty USPS parking lot.
I was returning to my car after mailing a few packages and I heard the sound of this train.
It was close.

Gates down, red lights flash, bells clang- the freight train rolls by. Count the cars, kids! Long trains in Ohio. Lots of cars. Sit and wait.
