This trip started like no other, because it started with a YouTube comment. One of my online friends, Central Kansas Railfan, commented on one of my community posts that NS 880 had just passed Ogden Dunes heading my way with an Executive Mac trailing. I was in a groove of working on YouTube video and totally would have missed it if it wasn't for him. When I pulled up the Chesterton Cam minutes later, there it was. With the incredible rarity of seeing an Executive Mac here, I knew I had to catch it.
A tie adjuster and ballast tamper were also there.
