> Marion is located on the former Pennsylvania line between Columbus and Sandusky. This line was purchased by the N&W in 1964 to provide a connection between the newly acquired Nickle Plate and Wabash Railroads and the Norfolk and Western. Even before 1964, this line saw many trains of N&W hoppers carrying precious Pocahontas coal to Great Lakes colliers at Sandusky, Ohio.

(yes count 'em), eight-diamond junction. The restored station houses both a museum and model railroad. In addition, the Marion interlocking tower has been saved, complete with the interlocking machine and will be open for your inspection. If you like seeing trains in action, this convention is for you!
