CN Storage & Scrap Lines, Homewood, IL, 2009
Author: Gary Everhart
These were shots taken of locomotives around the CN Homewood (Woodcrest) yard back in 2009. Many of these were in the scrap line or soon to be scrapped line (storage lines). By now, I would imagine that quite a few of these locos have disappeared from the face of the earth.
