<P mce_keep="true">MP173, I had known that BNSF was dispatching the CN line down to Joliet and running trains on the line, but I hadn't read anywhere that they were controlling the interlocking. </P> <P mce_keep="true">When I worked there, there was a link between the Yard and CN (back then GM&O) to the east but none toward Joliet to the west (and south). A train could be pulled (or backed) from the yard onto the CN tracks, and then move west toward Joliet. A satellite view on google shows a CN double track, the connection from the yard to the eastbound, and a facing points crossover to the westbound track, just the way it was when I was there.</P> <P mce_keep="true">Art</P>
