SD 70 Sunday
It would not have been a trip to Chicago without trying to see Metra's brand new SD70's. These beautiful locomotives are rebuilt for passenger service, with special modifications for Metra's needs. The light at CP Morgan was fantastic for the afternoon rush, and listening to these beasts notch up hauling hotshot commuter trains out of town was awesome. A quick 15 minute walk from my hotel to the Milwaukee lines out of Chicago Union was definitely a nice treat.
