CSS 2006 rolls through the streets of Michigan City with 35 cars as the lake effect snow kicks up behind them. Feb 12, 2015
South Shore's pair of ex-Iowa Interstate SD38-2's approach the Dearborn Ave crossing in Hammond, IN with the Belt Job, AF-4.

An overnight early November lake effect snowfall off Lake Michigan compliments the scene. And as can be seen in the distance the snow continues to the west over the southern and eastern suburbs of Chicagoland.
Built in 1913 in Newcastle upon Tyne. A Canadian survey ship that served in both World Wars and survived the Halifax explosion. She surveyed the waters of Canada's Arctic and the coast of Newfoundland and was also used as a patrol and training vessel. Now permanently docked in Halifax Harbour next to the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic.
Working with a three man crew, the AF4 heads back north after working multiple industries including Kingsbury, Pigfeed, and interchange with the CN at Stillwell. Here the Chicago South Shore Kingsbury local is seen passing by the pond in La Porte as the sun begins to set. Big thanks to the conductor on the job for giving us a run down of the day's work.

Meet me at this weeks FEATURED PHOTOGRAPHER along with a short interview in the group The World Through My Eyes.
Part I of an ongoing series, this is a 195 sec. exposure when the first stars started to appear, hence the small trail on the top left. The light behind the green dike is Emden, Germany, a few hundred meters across Fiemel, the place where this shot was taken.
Fiemel is a hamlet in the municipality of Delfzijl, the Netherlands. It lies at the east of Termunten, directly on the Ems, at the beginning of de Punt van Reide, the extreme northeastern tip of the province Groningen.
Post-processing notes: Color correction, contrast and detail enhancement.
Exposure info: ISO 100 - 12mm - f/4 - 195 sec.
Location: Fiemel, I think the most north-eastern part of Groningen, the Netherlands. Along the wavebreaker near the Reidehoeve.

A three-car eastbound South Shore passenger train crosses the ICG heading for home rails at Kensington Tower on a very frigid morning, in January 1982.

After rolling across the "Big Blue Bridge" CSS AF3 rolls into Hegewisch with a pair of CSS SD38-2s for power.
CSS train AF2 just came through the drawbridge on Amtrak's Michigan line. The CSS works a couple industries on this side of the river. It was another frigid day in the Midwest. I woke up to -12 degrees, drove the 2 1/4 hours to Michigan City to chase the CSS down the Kingsbury line. When I arrived, I received the disappointing news that they were not running down there today. But found out the AF2 job was waiting near Drawbridge for Amtrak to go by. Thanks to KV for the tip.
CSS 2009 runs through the controlled siding under the x-Michigan Central coal tower in Michigan City. A large number of cars for USALCO and Shell necessitated the move.
The buck in the foreground had something pique it's interest as the toms in the background tried to get laid. We're at the crossing of IN 35 outside of LaPorte on South Shore's Kingsbury Industrial Lead (NKP)

Seeing a South Shore 800 was always a treat for me. The CSS&SB's version of the Little Joe was massive, powerful, and sleek. It didn't make any difference if it was moving or standing still, the 800's were hard to beat.
Things get exciting for a moment at 95th Street as four trains move through the area at once. South Shore's Belt Job had just come down the BRC-IC connector with traffic from South Chicago. Here they are creeping towards their own trackage at Kensington, about to be overtaken by CN's Glenn-Kirk transfer, L536. Meanwhile, eastbound intermodal and manifest trains occupy the Belt/NS corridor overhead. The CCNI container compliments the Traction Orange geeps nicely.
