According to the historical satellite imagery on Google Earth, multiple parallel sets of railroad tracks were stripped from this area sometime between October 2008 and September 2010.

Westward through Shabbona, Illinois the BNSF 4752 leads the "Z" Train past some almost peaked colorful trees.
Saw this guy rapidly approaching in my rear view mirror, as we were also Westbound, and had just enough time to stop and get out to snap this shot. I'm certain a few days later this would have been extremely colorful.
