Dale DeVene posted A C&O westbound coal train is passing the original MA Cabin in Marion, that was moved across the tracks from MD Cabin (Which still stands today.) on October 18, 1981. I was the second shift operator this day at MD Cabin and as usual, there were no orders to hand on. The train is made up of N&W hoppers destined for the Toledo docks and came off the N&W at Valley Crossing on the south side of Columbus, Ohio. In a few days the cars will return this way and back to the N&W from whence they came. Photo by Dale A. DeVene Jr. |

Dale DeVene posted I had a request for an inside photo of MD Cabin in Marion, Ohio. Here we go! That is yours truly copying orders with the wonderful ear crushing head set on. Wasn't a fan of the hard plastic earphone, but it was part of the job and a good life lesson. This was June 24, 1981 taken when I was working 2nd trick at MD. Photo by Susan DeVene. Scott H. Brown: When was MD torn down? Did it control MA too or was there a tower there as well? Dale DeVene: Scott H. Brown MD Still stands at the corner of Fairgrounds and Lee St. It controlled from MA to MD. David Mays II: Dale DeVene - What was traffic like at that time? Dale DeVene: David Mays II 8 to 10 each way most days. Plus the yard crew in Marion. |
