Hovering at zero
With this afternoon's temperature hovering just above zero, and the windchill well below that, CSX train Q160 (Bedford Park, IL, to Port Newark, NJ, stacks) rolls through Cal Park Interlocking in Calumet City, Illinois on CSX's former B&OCT Barr Sub. Cal Park Interlocking was once home to Cal Park Tower which controlled the diamonds of the PRR with the B&OCT and IHB Railroads. The tower was burnt by an irate and disgruntled employee well before "workplace violence" was a thing. Now, two Control Points, one IHB, and one CSX are in place here.
