A lot of different colours at the Tidewater diesel facility..

I had to try some of RRMods diesel locomotive models, and these won't be the last. Very nice indeed.

Hey thanks, MTW! From someone like you, it's an honor.

I think the UMR is actually set in Canada, but nobody needs to know, right?

What route is that with the BNSF sd60m?

I would assume that's one of MTW's many projects, not available to the public.

We are at Brighton Park, it is 8:30 am on a weekday and the Western Avenue corridor is abundant with through freights, stack trains and odd transfers.

Two stack trains have already slowly made their way towards the CNW at Global 1/Wood Street when two more patrons show up to wait their turn
across the manually interlocked diamonds protecting the former GM&O from the former Chicago Junction, B&OCT, and Pennsy Panhandle mains.

CLW B-DUCO, a late mixed freight from Dubuque, Iowa, waits in line with a Silver Lines switcher hop to Ashland Avenue Yard from IMX trailer ramp.

Large and tiny, the two trains are barred from proceeding by a intricate set of interlocker semaphore signals (out of frame) from the early twentieth century.
All trains are required to stop at stop posts and wait for opposing movements to clear before being ushered through by the switchtender under blades.

A CNW stack transfer from CSX' 59th Street Yard will soon join the waiting party, right before the westbound Amtrak Lincoln Service no.303 clatters over
three different pairs of tracks on the Joliet Division.

CSX N420 Heads East on the L&N EK Sub at Cornettesville with CSX 3115 and 440 doing the honors as the helper set sits on the main waiting to shove the train to Hazzard.

Nah, look at Keith over here! I take a lot of tips from his mastery of work.

 

[BNSF650]

Wow what route is this? Very nice

 

[robertkl]

CSX E420 led by CSX 14 sits on the main as a loaded Southbound (T377) blast by with CSX 147 leading.

Even trains have to stop at red lights
