ICG GP38-2 9631, Homewood, IL rs
I just started rescanning some older Illinois Central stuff and chose this one to post first. We're at Homewood, IL and lucky enough to catch a southbound leaving the yard. Three orange and cream four axle EMDs are cranking it up as they pass me. Up front is a GP38-2, the 9631. He's got a GP40, the 3048, and what I think might be an ex GM&O GP35 third out. It looks like it has Alco trucks underneath it. Anyway, a solid set of any color on the IC was kind of neat. Of course, this wasn't yesterday. It was May 20, 1975.
