An eastbound South Shore Freight local passes the westward approach signal to the Canadian National crossing at Stillwell, IN in a heavy snow squall on Nov. 10, 2025, led by GP38-2 No. 2006.
2101 is westbound at Green Spring WV on 5-28-77. Not exactly my cup of tea, but it was free. William J Madden photo, JL Sessa collection.
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.

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.
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.
The pair of tastefully patched former Iowa Interstate SD38-2's look great soaring high over the Calumet River amidst a beautiful scene surrounded by gritty industry. This is a typical Saturday rendition of South Shore's Job to the BRC.

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.
