156 and 500 thunder out of Burr Oak Yd with a BICB primarily made up of ethanol mtys. 05-03-10. By: Chris Lastovich
|
A stellar BICB waits to depart Burr Oak in some sweet evening light, of course, FRED communication problems would plague this train until after dark. 05-04-10 By: Chris Lastovich
|
The almighty 513 leads a tardy BICB through Tinley Park on very crumby evening. I believe this is the closest the 513 has gotten to leading west in daylight... maybe some day. 05-13-10 By: Chris Lastovich

Ok GO! SD38-2 157 and GEVO 510 head east with their ANBIU ethanol train after Metra gave them the ok. 05-18-10 By: Chris Lastovich
|
Iowa 157 passes the old Chessie bay window caboose CSX keeps on hand in Rockdale. 05-18-10 By: Chris Lastovich
|
Emerging from CSXT's Bridge 407, the extra drops their Z026 CSX symbol and resumes using their ANBIU symbol as they enter Metra territory. 05-18-10 By: Chris Lastovich
|
Clear of Bridge 407, engineer Paul Graff kicks it into gear and the climb out of Joliet begins. 05-18-10 By: Chris Lastovich
|
Grinding upgrade toward Mokena, the lead motor is screaming as this ANBIU ducks under the former Wabash in New Lenox. 05-18-10 By: Chris Lastovich
|
Its all down hill from here as ANBIU rolls into Oak Forest. 05-18-10 By: Chris Lastovich
|
With a straight shot down track 9, Iowa 157 is taking head room on Harbor main 2 at C.P. Francisco. The bridge still shows off its B&O heritage. 05-18-10 By: Chris Lastovich

A pair of GEVO's are tonights BICB power, but once again air line problems will plague this train until after dark... 05-21-10 By: Chris Lastovich

As viewed from I-80, Iowa 506 leads 710 and 505 on a comically short BICB through Tinley Park. I believe the train was missing its block of cars from the IHB, i.e. ethanol mtys and Crandic traffic. 06-07-10 By: Chris Lastovich
|
Tomorrow's storm is approaching as the setting sun givesway to overcast skies, this short BICB rolls west through New Lenox. Looks like I need to try again! 06-07-10 By: Chris Lastovich
|
Again another re-do, the sun gets hazed out by tomorrow's incoming storm as BICB thunders upgrade through Mokena with 506 and 706 and 82 cars for Iowa. 06-11-10 By: Chris Lastovich
|
Rolling west, BICB bounces through Joliet with the ok frmo CSXT to bring it on. 06-11-10 By: Chris Lastovich
|
The seldom seen NIRC 3, the only SW1200 on Metra's roster, has permission out onto the main ahead of Iowa 511. 06-24-10 By: Chris Lastovich
|
Iowa 511 and 711 double team a 108 car BICB through the long shadows in Tinley Park, unfortunetaly, they held this guy until Metra 523 cleared BI at 19:30... passing Tinley at 20:00. 06-24-10 By: Chris Lastovich

Iowa 154 leads BICB through Mokena... of course the on coming storm couldnt hold off... 06-29-10 By: Chris Lastovich
