The lake and small falls here form the headwaters of the Little Calumet River which winds its way for about 60 miles towards Chicago.
This bridge was originally located northwest of Marshall, Indiana. It was relocated to Billie Creek Village in 1979. Unlike most of the covered bridges in Parke County, this bridge is named after the Beeson family who lived nearby (most are named after the the town they are located in or the river they cross.). This bridge also survived two different arson attempts in 1979 before it was relocated.
Also note this bridge does not have the famous words "Cross this bridge at a walk" as most other covered bridges in Parke County. This is most likely due to it being located on private property and not passable by vehicular traffic.

The Louisville & Indiana's Z550 has just picked up a string of cars off the Indiana Railroad and is heading up the ramp. Their 25th anniversary unit is on the point with their Veterans unit trailing. Down below the Indiana Railroad's SAHW road train is pulled down and waiting on a road crew to show up for their run south out of town. The Indiana Railroad's 25th anniversary unit also happened to be in that power set. I haven't done a lot with either railroad but was certainly happy to luck into a day where the LIRC interchanged with the INRD catching both classy Indiana Railroads in one frame.

The yard is mowed but the house is a ruin. Found this while transferring images from Aperture to Photos.
Indiana Railroad SAHW rolls passed Lake Lemon near Bloomington, Indiana on a dreary but colorful fall afternoon with a SD40-2 and a SD9043MAC doing the honors.

Happy Wednesday! Have a great day and thanks for viewing!
In golden light at the end of a long spring day, a Conrail ELSF train heads into the setting sun at 7:33 p.m. on May 28, 1989, at Chesterton, Indiana. The westbound freight is powered by an all-Santa Fe run through locomotive consist, led by Kodachrome EMD F45 No. 5950, heading back to home rails on the Conrail main line.
The centerpiece of Lafayette, IN is the Tippecanoe County Courthouse, in all the splendor of the morning's sun. I understand it was built to house state government, with Lafayette vying for status as Indiana State Capitol.
Another Grand Trunk westbound in a holding pattern at Calumet Avenue. This was a common place for the Troy Dispatcher to hold trains before launching them into the Chicago Terminal mess. Since CN sold the line west of here, this doesn't happen often.
Outside Madison, Indiana, I discovered a cloud factory. Must have been on reduced capacity that day. Still, it was putting out quality work.
CSX train Q560 passes the B&O signals at MP 79 near Hayden, Indiana. This train is made up of at least three trains that will be broken up in Cincinnati before heading to Toledo's Stanley Yard.
Good morning everyone. I'm pleased to present today a series on the usually very shy Gray Catbird (Dumetella carolinensis). Shy because Catbirds tend to be secretive and usually stay well hidden. They even avoid flying in the open if possible. Plus it's a bird I only see in the warmer months since it's not a year around resident.
Kind of a long series. Seven pics in total of which the rest can be found in the comment section and my stream. And in the caption under the later you'll find some text describing this unique bird.
So you'll know, Catbirds usually travel in pairs, but both gender are similar in appearance and nearly impossible to tell apart.
Thank you for stopping by...and I hope you have a truly nice day and weekend.

Kankakee, Beaverville & Southern 308 and 324 pull hard on a long grain move from Free to Lafayette, Indiana. The elevator at Earl Park has been razed since I took the photo on June 17, 1999. The Alcos are long gone from the KB&S roster, too.
At the end of the unit train 315 and 312 are working their guts out... If you zoom in you'll see the trail of thick black smoke drifting across the tabletop country. Well, at Earl Park there's a dent in the tabletop to quote a photo caption of the Trains story that brought me here.
The grade is about 0.6 % from Sheldon to Fowler.

CSS GP38-2's 2005, 1001, and 2007 lead the way of train AF-11 as it departs Kirk Yard onto the city track at Pine Junction located in Gary, IN.
On a disgustingly humid Sunday, the sun breaks away from the clouds just in time to shine on two South Shore Freights meeting on the west end of their Bailly Yard in Burns Harbor, Indiana.
On the left, a “Nice Guy” in the seat pauses for a couple frames before shoving into Bailly for the rest of their train for a total of 35 cars with CSS 2002 (GP38-2) and FURX 4226 (GP40-2). The job is AF12, the recently reinstated transfer to CSX East Chicago Pegasus Yard, at the time of the photo, the job has been online for a full week for the first time since 2017.
On the right, a trio of traction orange GP38-2s (2009/2007/2001) on train PF10 pull up to the signal on Main 2 at the west end of Bailly after completing their customer work on the east side of Michigan City, now waiting for AF12 to take off west so they can shove into Bailly.
This was my first time out towards the east end of the railroad since the NICTD Double Track Project has been completed and it was great to be back in action chasing friends on the CSS again. So much has been and will be changed in the past two years, granted it was a Sunday, holding freights on the main for long periods of time wasn’t nearly as possible or easy before due to the “silver sausage” commuter traffic. NICTD Dispatchers are still learning how to route trains around on the double track but it’s nice having everything completed, as well as daylight freights, now just added anxiety with track speed being 40MPH from Michigan City to Chicago and trying chase in the concrete jungle that NWI is turning into!
