General view of the South Shore's Randolph Street Station depicts a train from South Bend arriving while a borrowed RTA diesel-powered train looks on. C&NW locomotive engineer and long-time friend Gene Picchiotti is seen on the platform. Gene enjoyed a stellar career with the C&NW / Union Pacific between 1961 and 2007. This entire scene is totally covered over today.
CSS&SB Pullman built coach 7 at Randolph Street, Chicago, Illinois on an unknown day in February 1982, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The winter of 1982 was a tough one for the South Shore. New equipment was on order but had not yet arrived. As a result of layed up older rolling stock, the South Shore was forced to borrow bi-level gallery cars and diesels from the RTA.

A single MU is nearing the west end of Michigan City with a load of winter-weary passengers. I know I was winter-weary when I took this picture and looking forward to getting home myself.
Testing Mr Clayson's wonderful IE CSS discovery, with some quick changes.
All browsers get the basic version. IE7 and modern browsers get the full CSS after that, but IE6 gets it's own special stylesheet (above).
CSS&SB Pullman built 103 arriving at the Randolph Street Station, Chicago, Illinois, March 1980, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I worked in an office building in downtown Chicago during this time frame, and during my lunch hour, I often took South Shore photos, particularly if the company camera was loaded with film (I was their audio-visual guy).
Chicago South Shore & South Bend Railroad Pullman-built 102 at the Randolph Street Station in Chicago, Illinois on an unknown day in March 1980, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This sort of weather was not good for traction motors.

CSS&SB Standard Steel built 27 at Michigan City, Indiana on May 8, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The two gentlemen closest to the camera were my friends Jerry Appleman and Chris Burritt.
CSS Acadia is a old hydrographic surveying and oceanographic research ship.
Acadia served Canada for more than five decades from 1913–1969, charting the coastline of Eastern Canada and Hudson Bay. She was twice commissioned into the Royal Canadian Navy as HMCS Acadia, the only ship still afloat to have served the RCN in both World Wars. Today she is a museum ship, designated as a National Historic Site of Canada, at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic.

However, my best shot will have to wait until I can take a photo of a full moon. That's just all there is to it. When I have an idea, I am stubborn.

Life support systems and front steering thrusters below the passenger quarters.
With its capacity of 52 house-sized cargo containers, the Brujo Azul is a formidable force in keeping all those classic space moonbases supplied.

CSS&SB Pullman-built 103 at the Michigan City Shops on October 23, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 103 was built by Pullman Car and Manufacturing Company in 1926 as a 60 foot combination car with a smoking compartment. During 1943 it was lengthened to a 77 foot car by splicing a 17 foot section in the middle. During 1950 it received air-conditioning equipment and the windows were changed to sealed "picture" windows.

A pair of South Shore GP38-2s led by #2002 make their way east along the CSS main line as they pass the newly renovated Ogden Dunes, IN commuter station.
Notice the new gauntlet track the locomotives are traversing - commuter trains would use the inside track to get close to the platform while freight trains use the outside track, as shown here.
