This is How the CN Switches out the Caterpillar Plant at Decatur IL.
A pair of IC GP38-2s in CN Paint is the power for today. They have to make several shoving movements and once finished back down to their yard. Also while watching them switch DREI with haulage rights back down into the ADM Railserve Yard.

@HaroldAlexis-bb8sd 7 месяцев назад

🤣🤣 You know what's funny I was thinking the very same thing. I actually have that model to. 🔵⚪ I m looking at this building 's characteristics.🤭 I have a Bachmann Plus Freight Building 3 track, after seeing this video I will paint it identical to this one we are viewing. 👍

Who is responsible for supplying the tie down chains and binders? The shipper or the railroad?

Can be either. Customer can request cars with tie downs already on board or use their own.

If they are going to use IC reporting marks to reserve the rights to them, they ought to use the IC paint scheme as well. Death Star all the way for me.

Trains should have a back-up alert so people know they are coming. Like on new cars when in reverse.

The largest Caterpiller motor grader is still assembled at Decatur because its primary market is in mining applications.

@@bn13814 There is no such machinel as a 62M. Cat dropped the suffix and now identifies their graders with a number only. The largest is the 24 that is shown in this video.
