A couple weeks ago I got a tip that the Union Pacific's Morton Salt job would start around 9:00. I'd say that they started switching at 9 and finally got to Morton salt around 1000 for some street running Chicago Rail action. Today the Had a UPY 547 which is an ex CNW GP15-1, built by EMD. There were some Close calls with cars and the engineer blew the horn, wile the conductor flagged the 5-way intersection.

  • @whyroader hah thanks! Yah I was just talking to the conductor, hes a real cool guy.

  • Awesome Video! It would be absolutely awesome if CTM could take over this operation to service Blommer, Morton and Tribune, has CTM ever attempted to do so or are they not really interested?

  • @WhiskeyCentral Thanks! Yah it would be crazy! They might have tried, but its been strictly C&NW to UP for a wile. Maybe if the UP leases it, but I don't see it happening any time soon.
