Most of these pictures/postcards were found thru EBay.
Some pictures have been cleaned up and/or repaired when I had the energy.
Most of these stations are probably not around anymore, this page is mostly for historical reference.
What's the difference between a station and a depot? 
          Most people will say "nuttin", it's a matter of preference, although many will use depot for older buildings.
If they were available, and interesting, I included the back side of the postcards.


BEREA

A nicely restored depot along the CSX tracks.

The station used to be The Station restaurant with good food and reasonable prices, but as of the summer of 2009, it was put up for sale. 
It closed in December of 2008.

Railfanning Fostoria?  Checkhere to find out where these structures are.



FOSTORIA - ex C&O Freight Shed off North St

 



FOSTORIA - F Tower

The activity in Fostoria is first class.  However, you don't even want to think about driving in to where the tower is located!  There is NO one good location to catch everything coming through Fostoria, even if you're trying to catch just CSX.
