BNSF 3862 |
| Description: |
Unfortunately due to work schedules my dad and I did not have a true "End of the Year" trip scheduled. I had to go by myself this year, and with talks about signal replacement on the CSX Indy Line between Sidney and Ansonia, I knew that I should give that area a try just in case Im not able to get back down there again. I decided to start in Elroy where the first pair of intermediates are. Upon arrival, two westbound headlights could be seen on both tracks. One belonging to I131 and the other belonging to M313 which would end up working the yard at Ansonia. I131 soon overtook M313 and passed me with a sole BNSF Tier 4 GEVO. These trains come from and go to the UP so seeing BNSF power on them is pretty rare. |

CSX 6548 |
| Description: |
CSX L428 marked up with IC over in Ansonia to head east to Sidney to do work at Cargill, so I raced over to that end to get them splitting the pair at CP 189. No cars on this train today unfortunately, but anything splitting this pair is pretty cool. As far as I know this is the only signal pair that has a doll arm left on the Indy Line. |

CSS 2-D-D-2 #801 & 803 - Chicago, South Shore & South Bend |
| Description: |
Two of the three "Little Joes" were caught by an avid fan listed only as BH on the photo while the two were sitting in the Michicgan City shops area. The South Shore Line called these bi-directional units "800's" rather than "Little Joes" which referred to the Joseph Stalin order to GE for them but fell through because of political reasons. #803 is preserved at the Illinois Rwy Museum while #801 fell to the scrapper's torch in the 1980's. |

| Description: |
This boxcab was built by Alco-GE originally for New York Central in 1930 as NYC #303. After serving the NYC for nearly 25 years, it was sold to the South Shore Line in 1955. It was rebuilt and then served the CSS until being replaced by diesels in the 1980's. A rail fan listed only as "BH" on the photo took this at the Carroll Avenue station in Michigan City sometime in the late 1970's. |

Chicago, South Shore & South Bend Logo |
| Description: |
This catchy logo based on the favorite children's book was adopted while the South Shore Line was struggling to survive. The NICTD was founded in 1977 to aid the floundering line, and when it went bankrupt they began operating the passenger service, eventually going on to purchase it in 1989. it is now a very productive line and even expanding south into areas of Indiana. |

CSX 103 |
| Description: |
With M313 already working in Ansonia I knew that the only way I was going to be able to get it by signals that I had not yet taken photos of would be to backtrack to Union City. While this wasnt the original plan, I caved and went anyway. CSX I008 was coming east and it ended up showing up before M313 had finished working in the yard at Ansonia. |

CSX 4229 |
| Description: |
CSX L432 marked up with IC and began their trip east to Sidney out of Ansonia. I grabbed them coming by the QI 187 intermediates west of Dawn. A sole SD40-3 leads the way today with a pretty friendly crew giving a nice horn salute from the sharp K5LA. |

RJC 5544 |
| Description: |
Tuesdays and Fridays the RJ Corman interchanges with the CSX at Ansonia and while I was shooting the local on CSX, I could hear a horn in the distance signifying they were on their way up fron Greenville. Sure enough, I found them a few miles south of Ansonia and made it to the decrepit distant signal with CSX for my sole shot. Recently, RJC moved a "new" Geep to the property to replace the GP20 that had been on this operation for years due to it blowing out its guts. While it is sad that the GP20 is gone, Ill take this GP38-2, especially since it faces north. Both the GP16 and 20 that worked this job together faced south. |

The GP16 still holds on strong on the rear of the train, also passing the distant signal. |

CSX 1776 |
| Description: |
Things got very quiet as they usually do on the Indy Line after Corman came in so I began working east. CSX 1776, the Spirit of Our Armed Forces" unit was leading northbound I142 on the Toledo Sub and with it being so quiet outside I began to wonder if it was really worth my time sitting along the Indy Line to get any of the other signals. I eventually caved and went to the Toledo Sub right as I142 was working north through Sidney. Thanks to I75, I was able to chase the train to Wapak where I finally got ahead of it, and grabbed a shot of it passing the station there. This was the last Spirit unit I had yet to get leading a train, so in a way it was worth it, but that means another trip to the Indy Line will be in store at some point. |

CFE 2098 |
| Description: |
I decided that driving back south to the Indy Line wasnt worth my time so I decided to go into Lima and see what I could find. Low and behold things were all quiet there as well, but I did happen to see the tail end of the CFE Robb Yard transfer getting back onto their own tracks at NS Tower. I made it back to Cole Street Yard Limits just in time to get it passing underneath the distant signal with CSX in downtown. The original PL head has been replaced with this new trilight which has been up for a little over a year now. I was never fortunate enough to get a train under the PL, but at least they didnt replace it with a vader. |

CSX 5252 |
| Description: |
The only CSX train anywhere close was a X511 that got permission to depart south as I was getting lunch at McDonalds. Trains move very slowly through Lima so I was able to get down to see it in time, but I decided with things being so slow that it wasnt worth my time to hang around the tracks anymore, so I decided to go home and watch Notre Dame play in the Sun Bowl against Oregon State. Notre Dame won that game 40-8 and the second half was nearly as boring as sitting beside dead railroad tracks. But, I do love college football and I do love Notre Dame, and since I had changed my plans last second I wasnt really up for watching trains the rest of the day anyway. I had already scheduled the second half of my Indy Line Adventure for the following week on Wednesday. Hopefully things will go smoothly! |

UP 6776 |
| Description: |
I definitely wasnt planning on my first trip of the year to be to the Indy Line making up for lost progress from the last trip of the year from last year, but here I was on a very cold morning outside of tiny Houston, OH getting the last few pairs of signals I had yet to shoot trains by. I made it to the QI 174 intermediates in time to grab I131 coming west with a pair of UP units, and a good GE leading nonetheless. I never have shot a train by this pair, and hopefully, it wont be the only one before they come down. |
