Above is a link to a picture of the Byrne Road overpass of the Water Level main. In the northwest quadrant of the 2 (near today's ch. 24 building) is a track that comes off of main #1 and goes north to the costumer in the photo. It's tough to see on this link but the track is still in place, and can be seen heading south on Byrne.

So who is it and when did rail service end? Thanks.

I've been railfanning in Toledo for about 30 years now and I can't remember when the last time I saw these tracks in use, there's actually 4 tracks inthis area. Its been a lo-o-ong time, probably in the '70s. Today these buildings are warehouses(?), I have no idea what used to be there. :-)
