Coming back from the train show in Columbus, we stopped at a little town to have a look. Found a cool old depot and a couple of cabooses.

| Nice photos Jerry. Looks like good modeling material. Is that you standing on the caboose?

 Nice find. Is it still in use?

It's been restored but not in use as a passenger depot anymore. The rail line is still used for some shippers, and runs on to Nelsonville (about a 45 min drive) before it ends. There is a tourist railroad based in Nelsonville, the Hocking Valley RR.

Oh, okay.Very nice. It would be pretty neat to model that location, especially since I already know where to get the cabooses and grain elevator right off the bat. Ah, maybe.
