What used to be. |

Compare this shot to a 7/23/1993 Robert Lorenzo photo found in he and Nate Clark's "Bessemer and Lake Erie in Color." All that is left is the driveway to the former Willowbrook Mining Company, BLE Station 89. |

How much better could it get? Suds and trains. No, we did not partake in the suds at the establishment. |

Stay clear from falling taconite. |
| Description: |
902 South flies through the sky over Kimbles Viaduct. Note to self: Taconite hurts from that height. This bridge, part of the Porter Cutoff, was built in the time frame of 1916-1928 to reduce the grade and the curvature in this area. The main line is now 1.8 miles shorter from Filer to Coolspring. You can sort of see the ghost of the former double main running parallel to Scrubgrass Rd. between the two bridge piers. For more historical info and photos, check this site: http://www.tc.umn.edu/~galat002/mrr/Kimbles%20History.htm |

Foam!!! :-P |
| Description: |
Once a mighty junction with the Western Allegheny/Pennsy RR, all that is here today is one lonely main line. RRPA contributors Christopher Southwell and Jon Clark chimp their shots as 902 South continues to North Bessemer. |
