Very full service pit today!

Scanned from a print taken by my friend Wes Rupe. This picture was taken driving by the BN's Northtown yard in N.K.C., Mo.

Amtrak train 59, the southbound Panama Limited, begins it's journey from Chicago's Union Station by backing out, a maneuver necessitated by the route used to access the Illinois Central mainline. P30CH 723 and F40PH 281 are in charge of the shove as seen from the Polk Street bridge, Chicago, Illinois, USA, 11 August 1978.
