Return To Gallery Menu   Class As Doubleheading Batavia Hill Posted to History of the Peavine Railroad Facebook Group By Roy Hord, December 3, 2019. Description from post. Found this photo in my files. I scanned it from the original slide which I returned to its owner. I think it was taken by Jack Haap who is a fellow member of the Cincinnati Railroad Club. This freight is double headed by two Class A 2-6-6-4s. 1203 is in the lead and the other number is unknown. I originally thought the location was along Round Bottom Road but now I am not so sure. I think it may be between Batavia and Afton. Taken in the mid 1950's. Note the guardrails in the foreground. Thoughts anyone? Wish I had kept better notes. [D Lamb Note: Comments on this post ultimately agreed the location was at the Old SR 32 overpass west of Afton]   Location: Afton, OH Date: 1/1/1955 Source: Roy Hord Personal Collection Photo ID: 2125 Photo Link: Click Here To See Original Categories: Jeff Wood Memorial Bridge |  Steam |  Norfolk and Western |  Old SR 32 Bridge |
