North end of the Valley Yard.
Title:  North end of the Valley Yard.
Description:  Just around this curve there were a few more tracks, The track we are on, is not officially abandoned, but CVSR no longer runs the Canton Train and Wheeling's hesitance to deal with passenger equipment has severely curtailed any action on it. 2016 was the first year the 765 came to CVSR from Cleveland, rather than through Akron. Metro owns the line we're on, so it's anybody's guess what will become of this section.
