ILSX 920
Title:  ILSX 920
Description:  Unfortunately luck was not in our favor, and we didnt see the train running north at all between Decatur and Fort Wayne. Upon arriving in Decatur, however, we saw one of the many switchers that work the massive Bunge Elevator being serviced on a side track. Ive never seen a unit parked in this spot before. Made for some easy pictures.

CFE 3023
Title:  CFE 3023
Description:  Our luck dwindled to zero when we found the Decatur Local Power sitting still by the US 224 crossing. Not only that but we knew we had just missed them running as both units were still spitting. Oh well. A couple stills will have to do.

CFE 2098
Title:  CFE 2098
Description:  CFE 2098 would serve as the second unit when the train would be put together and taken back up to Fort Wayne the next day. Tying the train down here has been a more common occurrence in the past year or so due to crew shortages. With that, AJ and I decided to call it a day and head for supper at Wings Etc. in Decatur. After supper we went back to my house and AJ went home. An extremely good day trackside with plenty of good catches and shots taken. I always enjoy showing people from out of town around my neck of the woods and the many things it has to offer for the railfan. A very good day had, until the next one!

CFE 2132
Title:  CFE 2132
Description:  It was still a little to early to get supper at any of the stops along US 30 on the way home, so I decided to go home via Decatur, something I usually dont do when I come home from this direction. Man, am I glad I did though. The closer I approached Decatur I could hear the CFE Decatur Local working. Bunge builds CFEs entire train now, so I knew there was a slight chance if I was hearing this much switching going on that they might be down at Tenki-Plex on the west side of town on a small stretch of the former Erie Lackawanna. I went down there and didnt find them, and I almost gave up, but I looked to my right along US 27 and noticed lights blinking at the Adams Street crossing. I dashed for the tracks and sure enough the train consisting of two geeps and a single car from Tenki-Plex were getting ready to shove back toward Bunge. I quick attached my flash on my D610 and ran toward the depot, and prayed I would be able to get a good shot of the train passing the depot. And, sure enough, I did. In all my life living in this area, there has only been one other time Ive seen a train pass the depot, which was already over five years ago. This day was beyond disappointing, but the small wins scattered in it here and there were so welcome!
