Viewing Album:  Afternoon CN Power Plus - 4/12/12
 
By:Gary Everhart
Dates:4/12/2012 - 4/12/2012
Album Info:Five unit lash up usually means a long wait for motorists when the Canadian National runs through town. This was an exception to that rule. Relatively small number of cars makes me think that some of those engines were deadheading east. They sure do put on quite a show when they pass by. The ground does vibrate some!

Title:  CN 2547, CN 8919, CN/IC 9639, CN 2154, & CN 2258 - Canadian National
Description:  The 5 units are all past the Broad Street crossing now and heading east but starting to slow down somewhat. The turnout to the far right leads from the CN mainline to the former Elgin, Joliet and Eastner Rwy double tracks, a turnout that has received a major boost in traffic since the CN purchase in 2009.
