GTW And EJ&E Teaming Up - A Winning Combination

On the morning of June 30th, 2011, the CN's daily L509 heads south for Morris, where it would perform the day's switching duties. Two classics lead the way, with a nice wave from the conductor (thanks!).

Nevermind. Guess I should of read the description first since I realized you mentioned this was filmed in June.

@WhiskeyCentral No problem. Heh. Yeah, I'm behind on uploads, so I have some other older stuff to come.

Nice catch! Is this the line that goes south from the J main at Plainfield?

[NicTrain35]

@Nachtwolf1: Thanks! It is, indeed. In Plainfield, the train exits the Leithton Sub and enters the Illinois River Sub.

New hoppers?

Was this actually filmed on November 29, 2011. Because for the last month it has not had a J on it unless it did for one day because lately it has had 6202 and a CN locomotive.

@fnm9908: Thanks. The horn had me baffled. I've heard an M3 on a GTW before, but it was in CN paint. Go figure. Lol.

@GenesisSanctuary: Thanks! Definitely a classic.

@UPDetector: Thanks. That is one positive from the takeover. It definitely mixes things up.
