BNSF 9625 | Dwight, IL
A BNSF grain train waiting for departure from the CGB grain loop that is served by the NS on the Kankakee Line after loading earlier in the day. Once this train is crewed it will head to Streator for interchange back to the BNSF. For the past handful of months, the BNSF has been serving this elevator and one outside of Kankakee multiple times a week with unit grain trains.
I just happened to drive to Bourbonnais earlier in the day and saw it sitting there after finishing loading, so I figured it would be worth the short 15-minute drive back from Mazon later on in the evening to get some exposures of the Exec Mac. Due to lack of PTC this mac became a nose-in DPU once the train left the loop the next day.
