CSX Fostoria local

Back to Ohio and the midwest


Fostoria local headed by 6089 used the south wye at Fostoria several times to come out of the yard, head west to perform some switching, then reverse its course to get back into the yard.  Part of the move involved backing using a special whistle operated by the conductor.  The whistle sounds like a cross between a steam and a playground whistle. Not extremely loud, but very distinctive.
