Grain train almost ready for departure - or so it would seem |
| Description: |
A crew has just boarded this GE trio at the head end of a string of loads from Evansville, and will eventually take it on to Proviso. However, the third unit needs some attention, so first they will cut the power off, run it ahead of the lead switch, and back into the yard. It will be nearly dark by the time they actually depart. The other GE off to the right, coupled nose-in, is stored. I can't make out the number due to depth of field but the first two digits appear to be "98," placing it in the roster of ex-C&NW Dash 9s. |

Grain power pulls across Read Road |
| Description: |
They'll pull clear of the yard lead (track in the background) switch, and reverse in so their third unit can get some attention. |

Grain MTs creep along the Chemung branch |
| Description: |
The Chemung branch (formerly known as the Chicago-Chemung Railroad) was once part of the C&NW's "KD Line" between Kenosha and Rockford, with a split at Caledonia that allowed passenger trains to/from Chicago to serve Beloit and then re-join the line to Madison and points northwest at Evansville. |

Crossing a private driveway on the Chemung branch |
| Description: |
To my disappointment, DeLong didn't send out their SW7 switcher (ex-CM&N 202) to grab the empties at Oak Grove Road like they did when I chased this operation a year prior. Instead, the UP power took the empties all the way to the elevator at Chemung. |

Still has that new loco smell |
| Description: |
These are the reason some of the SD9043MACs have been bumped from their 80XX numbers. Trailing is the numerically sequential 8019 and the equally "RTR out of the box" appearing 8012 and 7974. |

I didn't know they staged power here...in the past I've usually seen them run it light back to the Portage yard to lay over & fuel between coal runs. |
