    I don't know if it would be of much help to you, but I have an eight page article from the Winter 1976 issue of Railfan Magazine. There is nothing on the steel mill as I recall, but does include a couple of pictures of the engine terminal and at least one of Benwood Jct. depot. The text describes an EM-1 cab ride from Wheeling to Holloway, OH. I could photo-copy it and mail it to you, or scan, and e-mail if you wish. I can't guarantee the reproduction quality though. PM if interested.
