Unusual sighting on IAIS in new lenox Illinois 2/18

  • Eastbound at 8AM a CSX train with nine engines and 107 cars.  Usually the most power trains will have through here is 3 or at most 4 GP38s.  This one had everything from a GP15 through several AC4400 units (or something similar).  I surmise it was heading for Barr yard.  All were running as #7 had some serious traction motor whine.
