A westbound CSS mixed freight departs Michigan City for Goff behind a pair of traction orange GP38-2s. In the distance on the left is the iconic cooling tower of the NIPSCO Michigan City Generating Station. It serves the purpose of cooling water discharged from the plant before it is released into Lake Michigan. The plant is currently expected to be shut down in 2028.
Had to grab this on the fly during my lunch break. Been a long time coming, lived up to my expectations. The rollercoaster railroad. My camera was in my backpack, at work, of course. More to come. Pullman to Burns Harbor.
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.

Tonight, I dug in and gave it a go. This is NOT the finished product, it's where I had to stop for tonight. I had a fantastic time learning and love, love, love Firebug, Dreamweaver, Filezilla and Gimp in concert. Also LOVE Colour Picker. (Yes I know Dreamweaver can FTP, no I haven't set it up yet cuz I was impatient.)

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.
