Still abandoned though. The fence was a clear giveaway at that

Don't get your hopes up, those crane cars weren' sitting there back in 2012, so they could be long gone by now.

Grand Rapids, Ohio

I'm not sure what was the point of upgrading the crossbucks.

Only known trace of where the line ends...

Those crossings are on the site.

They are owned by the Toledo Lake Erie & Western Railway, the line has sense been heavily cleaned up.
