CNW Power at Hawthorne
Title:  CNW Power at Hawthorne
Description:  Chicago Central gave up the ghost and stopped using weary old MILW GP20s from the Plaines Station Coal run inherited from GM&O and at the end CNW or UP power was a common sight. The first step in bringing high-horsepower 6 axle units back to the Freeport Sub. Now its all CN, of course.

CNW-UP IC Overpass
Title:  CNW-UP IC Overpass
Description:  CNW 8013 and UP 9223 bring the Plaines Station coal train east on the Freeport Sub, here crossing the BNSF at LaVergne. Now 6 axle CN and CSX are the norm but in 96 this was quite the novelty after years of Paducah Geeps which are now sorely missed!
