Viewing Album:  Pre-Birthday Trip on the IC and other Illinois Railroads.
 
By:Jacob Werling
Dates:1/28/2021 - 1/28/2021
Album Info:A duo of IC GP40R's in IC paint had found their way into the Kankakee Local back in early January, so I found myself driving the long drive out to Kankakee in search of them as a little pre birthday treat. Along with the IC's I grabbed some trains along both the joint line and even got lucky with one on the TPW.

UP 8813
Title:  UP 8813
Description:  I was informed that a KBS train was running to St. Anne today to drop off some cars for the UP, but upon my arrival in St. Anne, the train had already departed back for home base in Iroquois. So I settled for some joint line action. The signal was green for a northbound, and shortly after a northbound UP freight passed, here seen just to the north of town.

IC 1026

Description:  I circlied back around town to check the CN for one last time before headin east. I found that the Gilman local had returned while I was shooting the TPW train. They must have spun the engine on the Otto Loop.

CP 8810
Title:  CP 8810
Description:  With the light waning, I began to trek east toward home. With a little light left, however, I spent a little time by the Joint Line yet again in Watseka when I noticed a clear signal for both a northbound and a southbound. The northbound was a CSX freight which I unfortunately missed while changing locations, but the southbound ended up being this UP oil train with a CP GEVO in the lead.

NS 1113
Title:  NS 1113
Description:  Back home again in Indiana ( as one might say), I received a text from a freight that the eastbound triple crown train was nearby when I approached Logansport, so I decided to dig out the flash as I moved east. I diverted over at Clymers to grab NS M21 with a solo SD70ACe on the point.

NS 1052
Title:  NS 1052
Description:  And shortly behind NS 32N came NS 256 with a solo SD70ACe on the front. This train closed a very backlit, but very fun day trackside. Glad I got to spend it out in some territory that I dont get to cover very often!
