The reason the lashup is the way it is, is because of an electrical fire in the cab of the second unit. Filmed at Harlem Center Road near Freeport IL, and Wallace Yard in Freeport IL on 6-30-08.

    Surprisingly it does.

    sometimes in yard service.

  • @whitscot well you see back when I was in in Fort Payne Williams Avenue school (2007) I was eating lunch & in the lunchroom is a long line of windows where you get a awesome view of the NS AGS North District & when a train came I stared at that window until it was time to leave or the end of the train. Usually the regular NS gp38s would head to vulcraft with 1-12 bulkhead flats of flat sheets of steel & came back with nothing or empty bulkheads but today it was different... part 2 next

  • @tartopfan why would you?

  • @ic6071 no duh

  • it cool to still see some Grand Trunk units still in that color before CN kills them all like they are doing IC and EJ&E and I wont forget my Northern favorite the DM&IR it makes me sick seeing the old IC and Missabe in CN paint I never got to know the GT or EJ&E or Missabe much but I did the old IC from family in Louisiana I love seeing the CN in Canada but its weird seeing as far south as New Orleans and No I am NOT knocking the CN for the CN fans I Love CN too but in Canada

  • Have you ever seen 2 GP38-2s hauling a freight train with 3 Dash-9Ws?
