The CR one is long gone thanks to CSX and NS[}:)]. I've seen the NS one once and I've seen pictures of CSX's and UP's before

The BNSF corporate train was in the Chicago area about 2 weeks ago and was on the through tracks of Chicago Union Station for a while.

Below are pictures of NS's business cars. I once caught them on the end of an intermodel that was flying through GA. I gave chase, but they probably had a green light all the way to their destination. It's a shame that I couldn't get any pics...[:(]

The CSX business fleet is in frequent use for may different occaisions. Railroad inspection trips over various sections of the property for both company officials and significant customers. The annual Santa Claus Special that operates over the former Clinchfield.

Never too old to have a happy childhood!

CP runs on CSX trackage from Chicago to Terre Haute, IN and I saw a CP Business train pass by southbound while working J705 about a month ago, and then I saw the same business train on its way back north a few days later while working on a Freight on my way back from Chicago.
