Neat image, Bob. Lots of memories of boarding the "Abe" and other GM&O and Amtrak trains right there at Joliet, particularly during Amtrak's "rainbow" era, as in this image. Thanks for some good memories.

GM&O E7a's were among the few leased by AMTK early in the game.
Thanks for the interesting photo posting.
