Turning the power |
| Description: |
This power set was working through the plant at Fostoria, and would shortly head to the yard on the ex B&O Chicago main to pick up train 397 for Detroit. Were looking east on the NS ex NKP line. That's the B&O Fostoria tower at left, which was still active at the time. |

| Title: |
Lease unit |
| Description: |
This ex Chessie SD35 was the trailing unit on 397. I never saw another TORCO unit. I have wondered since who they were, and what became of that engine, though by now its probably long scrapped. |
