I knew Fostoria has a couple but I didn't know Deshler has one, too. Let us know when you're coming, Slugger.

I get out every four days. Going east my train is scheduled to roll through there at 0340. Going west it's 2250. Of course, sometimes we're early, sometimes we're late. I'll be through there sometime this morning going east (left to right). It'll be an intermodal with a mix of stacks and TOFC.
There is a 25mph restriction on that diamond right now. Been that way for awhile. I reckon the MOW is waiting on parts to fix it. It's one of those fancy flangeway diamonds. The ones where you're gauranteed to get wheelslip on because flanges don't grip the rail very well.
You can rewind the feed up to four hours because I'm sure most of you aren't going to get up watch a train on your computer or phone.

More interesting is the Deshler PTZ cam only accessable by bringing up Deshler regular cam first. This cam mostly focused on the N-S track at Deshler but it can cover the whole place should the camera operator be so inclined. Want to watch a CSX 130 car train squealing at 10mph around one leg of the Deshler complex you can see it here.
