Illinois Terminal

An Illinois Terminal SW1500 and RS-1 add a bright splash of color to the engine facility at Ottawa in 1974. The ITR started as a 400-mile traction system in the early 1900s but by the 1970s it was a diesel-powered short line carrying freight to the eleven railroads which were joint owners of the short line.
