"The Main Line of Mid America"

The Illinois Central whose slogan was the "Main Line of Mid-America" ran from Chicago to New Orleans on an odd north-south main line. Here we see a pair of Illinois Central Deathstar SD70s leading CN Q116 bound for Flat Rock, MI rolling under the Coal Tower in Lansing, MI. With clouds rolling in fast this would be the only location this pair would be seen in decent light.
