Three-way meet and a surprise at Savanna IL
Author: GAF1948

Sometimes everything just works out, and this three-way meet at the diamonds at Savanna, Illinois last Tuesday (8/25) was one of those times. CP/DM&E train 472 was approaching the criossing with a KCS Belle on the point, a pair of SOO GP38's (the local B67's power) was tied up on the NE connecting track, and a BNSF grain train with a DPU on the rear was just clearing the diamonds. I was happy about my luck but just tonight when I was working on the photos I discovered a surprise - both the BNSF and KCS locomotives were numbered 4191!

Great catch and shot, pretty cool coincidence on the engine numbers! Maybe you should buy a lottery ticket:}

Awesome all around!  I love those SOO motors, too.
