Marion Industrial Center. |
Description: |
The orange in the back belongs to Schneider trailers. They are loaded and unloaded in the intermodal center. Back in my day, the Advanced Croxton 99 would have work here. It was a hotshot UPS train. Also, at that time, the complex was part of the govt's General Services Administration, GSA for short. |

Clear block on the northbound C&O. |
Description: |
Several east west moves came first, however. The train stayed at South Marion because although it was lined up north of town, it did not have the signal at AC. |
