Jim Sturgeon, Portsmouth (really Sciotoville) Ohio, Home of what was once the largest rail yard in the United States. Right on the sharp bend in the Ohio river, within sight of the C&O Bridge that was designed and built by the same folks who built the HellGate bridge. At one time a main rail line north south. Lots of rail history within 10 miles.

I am not up to date on all the new fangled bells and whistles,but I am an Ohioan(Buckeye) with a Penn State first love. I was born in and about Johnstown Pa till High School, then moved to Warren Ohio and married the prettiest gal that Newton Falls ever produced. After 45 Years in Ohio and 34 Years with Republic Steel Corp We moved to Mesa AZ for My Wifes health. She
ran out of health four Years ago and I am still here in Mesa AZ. Please welcome me as an Ohioan as well as My Son who lives in(Near) Ohio City on Clevelands WEST Side, and My Daughter who lives in North Royalton. Don't forget my Sweetheart aho lives in Niles. I am now getting a life back after much stress and misfortune---and I am now selling Trolleys once again.

Jim, I did some work on that new bridge across the Ohio at Portsmouth. I have also seen Roy Roger's boyhood home. Isn't Sciotoville on US 23?

HI Ed,

We will take the of the certificate for you. But you will have to pick it up at one of the OTTS meetings. Don't think it will be done by tomorrow nights meeting.

I don't live in Ohio, but I've driven through it and am responding here only because I want to get five stars as quickly as possible. I figure 50-60 posts a day and I'll be there!

Great to hear from all of you Ohioans!

Lived in Northeast Ohio for 37 years, both Akron and Cleveland areas. Nothing beats a summertime visit to Cedar Point in Sandusky, relaxing at the Lake Erie islands and spending time watching trains in Bellevue by the NS yard!
