Street View, Nov 2020 I noted the date because it has a coal train in it. The disappearance of coal trains is an aspect of industrial history that we can witness ourselves. |

WLE in Lang The orange nose of WLE SD40-2 #7025 stands out on the south end of CN's Lang yard on the north side of Toledo. Usually Lang is pretty packed in full of cars but it looked little empty on this particular morning. Toledo, OH - March 2023 |

Charles Geletzke Jr. posted On January 9, 2008 we are looking north at the north end of CN's (former D&TSL) Lang Yard in North Toledo, Ohio. On the left is the yard office with Yardmaster's Tower, which was dismantled only several years later and on the right was the Hump Tower that once controlled the operation of the hump prior to its demolition.

The turntable still exists and a satellite image still has the hump tower.
It is the yard along the left side of this map.
