At the west end of the NS yard at Bellevue a former Pennsy branch line crosses the NKP mainline on its way from Columbus to the coal docks at Sandusky Ohio (Back in steam days you can see Pennsys famed J1 class 2-10-4 pulling loaded & empty drags up to the docks). Several miles south, the branch line crosses the ex B&O mainline from Chicago-Pittsburgh. Here a eastbound CSX autorack train powered by C44-9W 9034 & C40-8W 7683 pass by the SR 4 crossing and head for the yard & crew change point at Willard Ohio a few miles east of here. Postscript: The diamond crossing is behind us a few hundred feet to the east and the pennsy branch no longer goes to Sandusky. It dead ends at the jct with the ex NKP mainline at the west end of the Bellevue yards.
