The ROCK did have some mixed trains into the 1960s but certainly nothing that luxurious. Looking real sharp in that paint scheme. I dread to ask what the freight bill is for moving it from Blue Island to Amtrak. A weird consist with a single well car then the corn group. Maybe somebody got some paper or cardboard in the 2 GTW\CN boxcars. The Lumber cars in that faded red ate ONT Ontarilo Northland and DWC Duluth Winnipeg &Pacific cars. It looks like all the steel today was off the South Shore. And that first car was brand new it also has their new trademark comments. 2 potash. Today it was 2 smaller TILX covered Hoppers as buffers and 100 cars of ethanol. Certainly worth being Trackside
That southern pacific looked nice at the end of the train. The train ride I think is on Saturday if I’m correct and I heard the little honk he gave you
