The local cleared at Cicero, and the tank train went to Clearing Yard.
Ted Ferkenhoff Flagstaff, AZ Date: 04/15/24 19:22 Re: Twelve Minutes of Action at Clarendon Hills Author: kevink Thanks Ted! The westbound led by BNSF 5233 was RCHI4571 15 out of the Belt’s Clearing Yard.
Posted from iPhone Date: 04/16/24 05:22 Re: Twelve Minutes of Action at Clarendon Hills Author: kevink Tuesday morning update, tjhe train led by BNSF 6587 was parked in BNSF’s Western Avenue this morning. This means it’s probably HNTWNSI (Northtown, MN to Norfolk Southern) via 18th Street at the east end of the Chicago Sub.
Posted from iPhone Date: 04/16/24 06:11 Re: Twelve Minutes of Action at Clarendon Hills Author: commissioner Wouldn;t it be the GALNSI. Last I heard there wasn't a NTWNSI.
Mark Kennebeck Saint Paul, MN Date: 04/16/24 14:26 Re: Twelve Minutes of Action at Clarendon Hills Author: kevink Maybe Mark, but others have told me that NS doesn’t run a train to or from Galesburg.
Here’s some more freight car photos from the westbound.    Date: 04/16/24 14:28 Re: Twelve Minutes of Action at Clarendon Hills Author: kevink And a few more:
