Decatur Junction 1607 North - Decatur, IL (7-22-09)

[Watch in HD] Caught the Decatur Junction Railway down at WABIC. Engineer Rusty does a GREAT job pulling these grain cars north. They'll interchange them with the CN. The K5LA on the lead unit is ear-piercing, and also, it sounds REALLY GOOD. Not kidding. The first two units on this train are official Decatur Junction units, while the third unit is owned by Pioneer Railcorp, who operates this shortline and 15 others.

I caught this tandem in action just a few days ago outside Argenta, with 1607 in lead. Still has that awesome K5LA horn on it, too!
