The photographers who took these photos worked for the railroad and spent their lives preserving the company’s legacy so we might enjoy a look back in time. These men captured an era of machines that showed strength in harsh conditions, while preserving the aesthetic beauty of machine and surrounding countryside.Early blueprints and maps show the right-of-way and local streets at various time periods. If you are reading this you have a savor for Nostalgia. The romance that people have come to love about this branch is generally associated with the steam era. It is the authors wish this final edition rekindles memories, educates newcomers and fulfills the yearning to know what was and remains of the B. & O. Lake Branch. The journey from Painesville to Youngstown was approximately 64.4 miles. However, the story of the branch should be measured not in miles, but memories.
