  • She finally got an e-bell a couple months ago, and also a new k5la!

  • awesome horn, but the engine is scraped up pretty badly!

  • Except then, she'll probably have an E-bell to go with that shitty, fouled K5 on it now..

  • 122 has been like that for probably 3 or 4 years now, LOL!

  • I see the homewood bound one everyday as it passes up my southbound Metra train. Sometimes we'll pass it up while it waits at the "switching tower?" at around the Kensington115th Metra stop. But then it'll catch up and pass us after we pass the Iavanhoe station (4:16pm).

  • lol, ok i have only been on it 3 times....but still.

  • lol ALot!? You have ridden it TWICE in the last 3 Years...

  • That K5LA Sounded Great, but yes, she will need a good overhaul very soon. Nice video.
