The Detroit & Toledo Shore Line served industries in and between its namesake cities starting in 1903. The Shore Line supplied a lot of traffic to the Clever Leaf/NKP/N&W and the Grand Trunk Western, who each held a 50% stake. Here a caboose with an unorthodox window configuration is coupled to an SW9 carrying the same number in Toledo. Thirty-six days later, the GTW would buy out the N&W, and the DTS would cease to exist.
From a hint of "Bee" (NKP 765), colorful "Bees" (KCS), "Bees" w/ "attitude", to "Bees" that "sting" your eyes, in their own way they have "Bee" on display! Equipment that "Buzzes" with Yellow & Black colors! ("Bees" can still "Bee" entering this "hive"!)
Not
