Eight Hundred Class!
South Shore's former IAIS SD38-2's are picking up one car from the former "up and over" track built to serve industries that would have been cut off when the Indiana Toll Road was built in 1955. With no industries to serve, the CSS now uses the track for storage.
The units are numbered after and in honor to the previous occupants of the 800 class, the 1949 GE built electrics. Please don't call them Little Joes!
