| The Diamond at Spencer, Ohio | ||||||||||
| Spencer Ohio is host to the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railroad. Not far from the center of town on the Wheeling line is the Spencer yard. When viewed it doesn't look much like a yard at all but when times get busy you can prepare yourself for many complex manuevers across the diamond that separates the yard and the two Wheeling lines that run through it.
