CSXT 8954 shatters the tranquility as it hits the diamonds in East Chicago. The classic Calumet East Chicago landmark is actually still manned, and the steel plant in the distance is also still in use. Slap this great WO49 in the shot and you have a memorable scene! |

Heading back East |
Description: |
The next day I catch the sprayer heading back from which it came. Yet, 35 years ago it was at this same place being delivered to the Seaboard Coast Line. I will never know why time seems to rush by so fast, but after taking this shot I just stood back and watched this soldier head out of town, no doubt my last time seeing it, because this will also soon be the past.(Thanks to Kim Piersol for the photo of SCL 2049 when it was new!) |
