CSX SD70MAC 4802, Porter, IN Q327
It's been awhile since I've been to Porter Jct and Chesterton. One reason was recouping after being in the hospital for eight days. So, it's been about a month since I've been out and a trip to see the NS Chicago Line was in order. Nothing really spectacular. The highlight of the day was seeing Q327 coming off the old C&O Michigan line onto NS rails at Porter Jct. This train's run between Grand Rapids and Barr Yard is normally nocturnal, but today it was a daylight run. Made the trip worthwhile, especially with a neat engine consist. The trailing engines were the 8870, an old KCS SD40-2, and the 7494, an ex Conrail C40.
