Another sad but interesting GALCSX heads east to CSX's Barr Yard in Blue Island, IL, with a former Santa Fe GP30u and former BN SW1000 dead in tow. They've been sold to Larry's Truck and Electric in Ohio, where they'll either be sold, leased, or scrapped. The working consist on the train isn't half-bad either, with an H1 Dash 9 and a Warbonnet Dash 9, the former "Devil Unit", ex-ATSF 666.
