Occupational hazard         
When you come to a busy place like Rochelle, there's always a chance a train will be going by as you arrive with no opportunity to shoot it properly. In this case, both eastbound and westbound UP coal trains were crossing 9th St. at the same time. The eastbound (loads) cleared first, and I fished out my DSLR and snapped this shot of the DPU on the westbound even though it was looking straight into the sun, just to have SOMETHING from the two trains.
