Close behind I136 was E600 with a solo SD70MAC rebuild.
Eastbound autorack train stopped and waiting for a signal to proceed, with some peaking fall colors in the background.

I knew I028 was coming north with a SD70MAC on the front for a long time, but it took forever to show up where I was. Apparently a detector had hit it around Woodland and it had to stop for a while. During the 2 hour wait, nothing else showed up where I was sitting at Grant Park. Since I had a decent leader and good light, I decided to call I028 the final train of the day, and grabbed a shot with the new 23 Trailblazer in the frame. The GPS had me home at 10:30 and I decided I wanted to drive home in some daylight. A slow, but very fun day!
I025 (Bedford Park, IL - Jacksonville, FL) coasts downhill through Bakers.
I141 (North Baltimore, OH - Fairburn, GA) rounds the curve just south of CP Maplewood. The train has just met I026 on the dual mains between here and CP Ekin.
