CP Train Through Deshler
Title:  CP Train Through Deshler
Description:  Once upon a time, the CP used to run trains through Toledo to Deshler and then West to get to Chicago. The Northwest wye was not in good enough shape to accomodate the move, so the train would have to pull across the diamond and then back up through the Southeast wye.
