[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by eolafan It is a real site to see the J power come up "the hill" from Eola yard to go south on the J main to Joliet with a loaded coal train and the power pulling for all it is worty to get up the hill. I would suggest anybody who can tell from their scanners that this is about to happen go up and sit at the J crossing at Liberty street (nest traffic light on Eola north of New York street) and wait for the sound (first) then the sight of two or three SD's pulling for all they are worth). [/quote] Does this happen at a fairly regular time? The use of J power may explain another mystery. I've wondered about light engine moves, often 2 or 3 BNSF SD70Mac's, down the racetrack probably to and from Clyde. It sounds like they're bringing the coal train in to Eola, the J takes over, and they're heading to Clyde for service, inspection, or re-assignment?
