CSS 2002 @ Chicago, IL

Ringing in the new year with a burnt out ditch light! A seemingly impossible fix and multiple second attempts by others, the ditch light will be left burnt out…it adds more character right?

 

Anyway, a rare sunny January day in Chicago, South Shore Freight’s “Belt Job” or AF4 is seen here crossing the Calumet River westbound with 30ish cars in tow for Belt Railway of Chicago’s Commercial Avenue Yard. The power this day was a pair of classic traction orange CSS GP38-2s (2002/2006). Lucky for me, the clouds played nice, as the day got shorter, the clouds came to steal whatever sun was left hovering around the east side. Taken: 1-9-23
