IHB took delivery of 4 new 3GS21B gensets - these frames will also live on to shuffle more freight!
One of the last two NW2s on IHBs roster works with a load of tank cars out of Whiting, Indiana. Transformers 3 was being filmed directly behind me less than 500 feet away.
1949-vintage IHB NW2 #8814 smokes it up as she accelerates a very long mixed freight south out of Michigan Ave. Yard through Calumet Junction on the Kankakee Line.
Almost 60 years old, IHB 8814 meets brand new CSX 818. Technology and paint are very different, but they have the same purpose: keep those freight cas moving.
This train stretched from the State Line down to Columbia Avenue (approximately 2 miles), all pulled by one lone NW2
50+ year old switcher with a brand new autorack.
Taken from the Columbia Avenue bridge.
