Planning on a road trip in the middle of the month, coming in from Michgian and besides the depot in Marion what other railroad attractions are there in the area?
Thanks,

The Depot and Tower are all you need, the tower is the real gem. It even smells like it should if that makes sense.
I love Marion!
There is plenty of places to stop on the way down and on the way back though. In Carey south of Fostoria the WLE crosses CSX's C&O, there is of course Fostoria with three incredibly busy lines, Deshler with two busy lines, Attica Junction where the NS Sandusky District crosses the CSX Willard Sub. Bellvue with it's NS Yard and multitude of lines.
There are tons of great places in the neighborhood.

WLE dose not cross the CSX in Carey, it interchanges, but both diamonds have long been removed.
