Northbound Grain Train |
| Description: |
Wow, UP is actually going to run a northbound grain train up the De Soto Sub. I got up close and personal with this train, when the train came around the curve I walked towards the yellow line, when I looked at the train again I thought, "Oh shit, I'd better back up, he's on Main Track 1 and going up the De Soto!" The engineer honked twice and the crew waved, because we still do that here. |

Northbound Intermodal With 3 SD40 Family Locomotives |
| Description: |
Here's an Alstom Rebuild leading UP Train ZLDYC 16. I crossed paths with the 6026 on 12-5-04 in a cold rain storm about a quarter mile south of here. This engine was destroyed on 11-24-05 at Momence, IL at Pence Interlocking when a southbound UP Train and an eastbound NS Train collided. Nobdody was killed, but UP 1385, UP 1485, UP 1800, and UP 2658 from the UP Train were scrapped on site, as well as NS 9443 and CN 6026, and a Guilford Unit, MEC 375, the engines from the NS Train. To see the 6026 wrecked, go here: http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=130505 . |

NS Unit on a Northbound Manifest |
| Description: |
Lots of foreign power today, this train scooted through on a yellow signal because it was close behind the intermodal in front of it. The concrete wall in the background used to be part of the MP Ice Docks which were gotten rid of in the early 60's. |
