Twain go choo choo toot toot

It’s a beautiful Sunday afternoon with code blue skies, as train PF9 heads east for Bailey Yard Burns Harbor, IN after completing its work at Burnham Yard with 87 cars in tow. Seen here leaning into the curve at Roxanna in Hammond, IN with the pair of CSS SD38-2s (804/805) as Engineer Kevin Vahey puts on a mini smoke show in run 8 along Interstate 90. Taken: 3-13-22

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.

A 3-pack of GP38-2s are on the pulll out of Burnham yard with a NORX coal train bound for Michigan City. You can't see the third one in this picture since it's hidden by the curve that leads into Hammond. It's March 7, 1981 and Winter is packing its bags to leave Da Region, but Spring looks to be not too close just yet. The blue and yellow livery that the South Shore GP's wear reflect on its owner at the time, minus the neat Cat herald. Too bad, they couldn't have slapped the South Shore shield on the nose, at least.

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.

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. 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.

CSS&SB back home in Indiana.

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.
