The Short Line

As an eastbound tank train knocks down CP 503, CSL #31 grabs a cut of coils behind the former LTV (Youngstown Sheet and Tube) mill at Indiana Harbor before heading back west towards the state line.

 

The Chicago Short Line was formerly operated by LTV Steel and reorganized as the South Chicago and Indiana Harbor after the International Steel Group acquired the assets of bankrupt LTV. Now operated by Mittal, the railroad continues to operate with a roster of four switchers, all of which were delivered to the CSL in the '60s and '70s.
