RI Hump Set
A kick @$$ set of A-B-A SD40-2s was called to bring the M-GALCLI north towards Clinton. Galesburg must have been itching to get its hump set back, so they met the M-CLIGAL at 17th Street in Rock Island, IL to swap trains. Both crews ended up dying right here in downtown Rock Island.
Who knew it took 12 hours to get from Clinton to RI and Galesburg to RI on the same morning?
Oh, and that 533 don't look too bad either!
