CSS&SB 11 at Bendix, South Bend, Indiana on July 27, 1986, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This is the Bendix station on the western edge of South Bend. The tracks were cut back to this point in 1970 to avoid street running. This car was built by Nippon Sharyo in 1982, the second 11 on the South Shore. It was wrecked June 18, 1998 when it collided with a tractor-trailer loaded with steel coils weighing 19 tons each, one of which broke loose upon impact and rolled through the car destroying it. It was replaced by the NICD in 2001 with third number 11. The NTSB report of the accident is at the address below:

Mr. Polk and company meet AF6 at Burns Harbor. This set of buckets was bound for the Belt and eventually UP, but the CSS SD38s were the draw for me. Thanks to Polk and Mr. Kahn-Treras for the assist on this.
I had originally (over a year ago) taken last week off for a trip to Ireland with Morgan. With the virus and her getting a different job I ended up having the week to myself, and with a new house soaking up most of my money canceling plans, I figured a spur of the moment trip across the pond to visit Josh was in order. These buckets just happened to be on the way and were a great start to a solid week in the land between the lakes. Of course since I couldn't adjust my week at all it was cloudy and raining the entire time but we still made some great shots and had a damn good time covering most of the state.

Number 14 was built by Pullman Car and Manufacturing Company in 1926. It was rebuilt in 1942 along with number 15, the beginning of a rebuilding program that encompassed 33 cars (I believe). The rebuilding process added 17 feet to the middle of what was a 60 foot car. Some of the later rebuilt cars also received air-conditioning and sealed picture windows.
