Richard Shulby Great photo! Appears to be from the 40s.
Dennis DeBruler All of the coal cars in the yard is a reminder that B&O had a coal dock up by the lake.

1936 B&O Roundhouse and Yard, E 36th St, Lorain, OH. This yard helped service the coal docks on Lake Erie back in the day.
Carl Jasinto: This is looking north. The round house is gone now. The steel plant (National Tube is at the top of the picture. My dad worked for the B&O. after WWII.

B&O had quite a few railyards along their mainline to serve their coal dock and the steel mills.
