Toward the end of June in 2002, Milwaukee Road visited the Chicago area head up a series of excursions west out of the Windy City. The locomotive is depicted here inside of Chicago's Union Station, highballing through Lisle (Lyle), IL, west of Montgomery, tearing apart Galva and arriving in Galesburg. The video concludes with the 261 approaching Metra's Highway 59 stop before continuing on to Chicago.

  • Thanks you, Videos very nice,

  • As nice is the steam is, very little can compare to the Cedar Rapids for total passenger comfort and experience. We rode this car last year twice and fell in love with it.

    We rode Chicago to Owasso behind 4449. It will be great to see 261 under steam again.

    Wonderful video here... Thanks..

  • boy to think of how many years it's been since a steam locomotive has been inside union station under steam. what a sight.
