NS 8000, 1017, & PC 1073 lead 54A  Contributor's Pick!       
Train #54A pulls into New Baden, IL with NS 8000, 1017, & Penn Central heritage #1073 after meeting a hot Westbound intermodal train. Little did I know, about 70 miles East this train would end up hitting a tractor trailer (semi-truck) damaging the lead locomotive to the extent of trapping the crew.
