CSS 2004 @ Kensington Tower - Chicago, IL

BNSF Sweetgrass coal loads by way of the Belt Railway of Chicago via Commercial Avenue Yard, snakes off the CN thoroughfare and onto NICTD rails at Kensington Junction bound for Cleveland Cliffs at Burns Harbor, IN.

 

Engineer Tyler Guthrie is at the helm of a pair of CSS GP38-2s (2004/2000) and a CSS SD38-2 (804) on train PF-9, as they pass the ever so decaying 108 year old Illinois Central interlocking tower that once controlled one of the more busier junctions in Chicago of Metra, Illinois Central and South Shore.
