Happy Holidays 2010...
SP (CEFX) 9362 East passes IHB's Gibson Roundhouse as it heads east towards Fort Wayne.
A nice lash-up is on the approach to the IHB's Gibson Yard, in Hammond, Indiana. In the lead of this vehicle train is a CN SD75I, followed by a CN SD60F, a CN C44-9WL, a BNSF H1 Dash 9, an NS Dash... (more)
An interesting lashup of IHB switchers lead train BA4, having just crossed the state line into Indiana.
First train of the day is an excellent one, 3 SD40's head east with 68Q bound for New Jersey from CP Trackage and with DM&E and IC&E power leading the way.
A trio of SD40-2's rolls westbound toward Calumet City and Dolton on a busy morning in Hammond Indiana.
After finally getting clearance to cross the NS, IHB 4017 is now passing the pitiful looking Hohman Tower on it's way to Gibson Yard and points east. The tower has since been torn down.
BNSF coal loads has just crossed the state line from Illinois into Indiana as it approaches Hohman Tower in Hammond Indiana. IHB 4017 waits for clearance into IHB Gibson Yard.
A rare IHB SW1200 (one of two left on the IHB roster) rolls eastbound through Hammond toward the IHB Gibson Yard with ballast cars in tow. I'm sure the days are numbered for this little guy...
BNSF coal loads head east down the old NYC Main.
BNSF 9203 leads a coal drag east on the NS Chicago Line past the Amtrak station
BA2 switches the east end of Burnham Yard at Homan Ave before heading up to State Line and then eventually back to Blue Island.
