Scenes from some northwest Ohio locations along the B&O Toledo Division in the mid 1950s before the demise of steam.

At Leipsic Jct. the Nickel Plate Road crossed both the B&O and DT&I within a mile of each other. KN Tower controlled both crossings. For those who railfan at Leipsic today the funeral home is on the site of the joint B&O-NKP depot seen in the film. All three lines are still active today.

At Columbus Grove (CG Tower), the B&O Toledo Division crossed the Akron, Canton & Youngstown (now gone), although CG Tower existed into the 90s.
