And now for something completely different.....this afternoon, while returning to St. Louis from the University of Illinois at Champagne/Urbana on US 45, I saw a few of IC/CN's more unusual locomotives. Just south of Chambananaland was a northbound with a UP SD70M / Dash8-40CW / SP SD45 / IC SD40X 6071 (ex-GM&O, ex-EMD SD40 prototype on SD35 frame). Farther south I encountered a southbound grain train which I chased from South Tuscola to Mattoon....motive power was ex-LMSX Dash8-40CW's 2466 / 2462 still in ratty Conrail blue with CN logos and IC initials on the cab.
