The large elevator greeting people to Mansfield at CP MANS on the Fort Wayne Line hosts the passage of a "live" directors special from Bellevue to Conway, running as train #951 on 6-29-2011 on a nice summer morning.
NS oil train 66X passes underneath the approach signal for Mansfield. With the demise of Oil trains on the Ft Wayne Line, this stretch of the railroad may be in jeopardy.
On a perfect clear late Summer morning, NS train 12V is led by the Pennsy Heritage unit as it splits the position light signals at CP West Mans as they roll into Mansfield, Ohio on namesake rails. These signals protect the diamond with the Ashland Railway's former B&O line which gives them access to the large grain elevator in the background. Thanks to Zach for waking me up and to Scott and Wak for their assistance.
After pulling past the Pennsylvania PL bridge guarding CP Mans, NS 171 shoves back into the Mansfield Yard to retrieve the rest of their train with Delaware and Hudson heritage unit #1080 on point. I haven’t had much luck with the Fort Wayne Line west of Alliance in the past, so I’m grateful it worked out this time around.

Southbound and down on the Wabash, a pair of SD40-2s yank a hefty slug of Decatur traffic out of Mansfield.
After doing some switching, CSX B733 pulls up to the signal at Mansfield Interlocking at the south end of Mansfield Yard. The crew will wait for the light before heading out onto the main to work local customers on Amtrak's Northeast Corridor.
Within a matter of minutes of each other the Ashland Railway job to Ashland rolled by followed soon thereafter by NS local C03 with a nice standard cab EMD on each end. Mansfield, OH 6/1/2020
After yet another hospital appointment in Mansfield, we decided to visit this popular Italian restaurant. It is housed in quite a distinctive building with a more modern bar and daytime inside and outdoor seating area added to the left, as you look at the photo. I could only eat their ‘homemade’ soup with crusty Italian bread due to my condition whilst my wife had the chicken skewers. I must research to find out what the original use of this quite building was.
Spotted this sculpture in Mansfield town centre and thought it would be a good opportunity for getting in close with the 7Artisans 12/2.8mkII
Ashland 2022 and 2023 sit with a cut of covered hoppers waiting to spot them at the large grain elevator in Mansfield.
CSXT Walpole based local L011 with lone GP40-2 6241 (EMD blt. Mar. 1979 as BO 4342 and delivered in Chessie System paint) has ducked in to pull empties from the Tighe Logistics warehouse. The balance of their train is sitting on the lead track known as 'the chocolate' adjacent to about MP 204.8 of Amtrak's New Haven Boston Line, the busy Northeast Corridor.

Despite the changes occurring along the Ft. Wayne Line, some places remain unspoiled (at least for now)...
NS 170 passes under the three track signal bridge at Mansfield.
I got to the station and these engines were pushing some cars towards the chocolate factory. 6-22-12
12V splits the Pennsy lights at CP West Mans in Mansfield, Ohio as it rolls into town for a crew change with a pair of freshly rebuilt AC44C6M's on their first revenue run. The Mansfield based Ashland Railway crosses Norfolk Southern's Fort Wayne Line at this interlocking.
Roughly 15 minutes prior to sunrise, ASRY 30 departs Mansfield for Ashland taking the connection off the B&O onto the EL main. The signals in the foreground belong to NS guarding the diamond at "West Mans".
The stone used for the Houses of Parliament originated from Mansfield Woodhouse, a village in Nottinghamshire, England. The stone was magnesian limestone, which is a type of sandstone that is fine-grained and durable. It was transported by packhorse to the construction site of the Houses of Parliament. The stone's durability and fine-grained nature made it an ideal choice for the construction of this significant building.
Still in business today, Balfour Beatty has been a major player in the UK construction and civil engineering markets. Founded in 1909, its initial operations focused on tramways, with a notable presence in the East Midlands. That activity led Balfour Beatty to diversify into power generation and general contracting, playing a key role in the development of Britain’s National Grid. During the same 1930s period, Balfour Beatty replaced the trams with buses at its subsidiary companies.
Just three bus companies remained on Balfour Beatty’s books when it decided to exit the market at the end of the 1940s. Thus, Midland General, Notts & Derby and Mansfield District were sold to the state-controlled British Transport Commission. Previously major buyers of AEC and Leyland buses, the ex-Balfour Beatty bus fleets then took a steady influx of standard Bristol/Eastern Coachworks vehicles. However, the old liveries were retained, together with other details (eg destination layouts) that differentiated the fleets from the general BTC run of the mill.
This view at Newark Bus Station proved to be the sole occasion I photographed buses of the former Balfour Beatty bus fleets: all three companies lost their identities soon afterwards under National Bus Company management. On the left is Mansfield & District 545 (24MNN), a Bristol FLF6G Lodekka new in 1963. Its companion is 104 ( JNU993D), a 1966 dual-purpose Bristol MW6G that was registered by Midland General Omnibus but seen here in service with Mansfield District.

The headstone of Mansfield How whose epitaph reads:
"In the bloom of Life
I did refine my breath
O then by me admonish'd be
And all prepare for death"
