Eastbound UP Manifest Under the Old CNW Searchlight Signal Bridge

Contributor Pick

This is my favorite shot of the day from Rochelle, 2 ex-CNW SD40-2's and a CSX lead a train under the Old CNW Signal Bridge running on the left main on Main Track 1 like CNW used to. The lead unit even had a nose gong bell. Rochelle Railroad Park used the photo as their "Photo of the Week" for November 26-December 2, 2006 at www.rochellerailroadpark.org .

Nice pic. Not that often that you see a restricted signal in Rochelle. I've seen a restricted signal there once on that signal bridge.
