Conneaut Harbor

The last shot I wanted to attempt on my chase of BLE No. 867 leading the northbound empties was a drone view of the train switching the P&C Docks in Conneaut. I had failed at trying to get the same shot a few days earlier due to the drone's battery being too cold for the thing to start up, but on this day, I kept the battery sitting on top of one of the heat vents in the car to keep it warm and when the train began to pull forward into the docks, it worked perfectly. Hopefully I will be able to try this in the opposite direction once one of the orange motors is assigned as the south facing leader on the road set.

 

BLE 867 and company drag the last cut of empties from their train into the P&C Docks in Conneaut, Ohio. After having lunch, the crew would head back south toward Greenville with a lengthy train of loads.
