First Picture of 2012 |
| Description: |
Came down to Chicago to deal with a Visa problem for my girlfriend's trip abroad to India. We had to stay overnight, and I was able to sneak away from the hotel briefly to check the Metra UP Northwest Line. Here a southbound commuter train to Chicago-Ogilvie arrives in Arlington Heights. |

(2) CSX R170-08 |
| Description: |
Rolling downgrade into the Thornapple River Valley, CSX 738 leads R170 towards the overpass at Thornapple River Drive. This was one of a number of trains rerouted through Michigan over this particular weekend due to an epic crash on the B&O in Indiana. This was the only one of those trains I saw, however, as I was too busy sending my girlfriend off to India and then subsequently missing her. I just happened to catch this train by pure luck. Doing some errands. |

Running very late, D708 rolls through the switch at E.E. Trowbridge and enters the mainline as it resumes its local trip to Howell to switch industries. I'll never understand why the dispatcher decided to run this train through the siding with no opposing traffic present. |

CN 399 |
| Description: |
BNSF Pumpkin Dash-9 4932 leads 399 across Harrison road, just ahead of Amtrak 365. A few years ago, if you had told me I'd be excited to see an engine like this, I would have laughed. But living in non-BNSF land, these are now rare among visiting engines. Most BNSF engines venturing into Michigan today are H3s. |

| Description: |
6399 brings up the markers as D908 heads back to Lansing. Given the fact that 6072, leading at the front of the train, was called to do today's work, it reasons that there is a problem with 6399, relegating it to this rather embarrassing job as a caboose. |

Amtrak P370-29 |
| Description: |
Why, 500, we meet again! Having recently finished its bio-diesel testing on the Heartland Flyer, Amtrak 500 has once again been released into the general pool. A power shortage has seen the engine's use on the Pere Marquette and as of the upload date of this photo, the engine is still working 370 and 371. Here it sits with 370 as it unloads passengers on its first night in Grand Rapids. Definitely a nice break from the ordinary! |
