Remarks & Notes

Amtrak train 4, The Southwest Chief slows for its arrival at Joliet, IL on its last lap into Chicago with an interesting power combination on the point. In 1995 Amtrak had a pretty healthy express business from the looks of this train. I noted that trains 3 & 4 now run on BNSF's former BN main out of Chicago, thus not serving Joliet any longer.
