World of Hurt
My aimless wandering landed me in Bement, where scanner traffic suggested that NS D17 would be departing towards Champaign relatively soon. The thought of chasing a northbound up even just a section of the Bloomington District was definitely an exciting thought - so wait I did.
The wait paid off, and with a 30mph restriction due to a faulty EOTD, they were off towards the Andersons grain facility. I sped off to the Bement intermediate, and after parking, promptly slipped on the ice almost directly beside the signal itself and hit the ground. Ow.
I'm just glad the train was far enough away so that the crew didn't see that...
