Nostalgia & History > From The Old Computer - Rock Island 1265

I recently realized my old computer I replaced in 2016 might still have higher quality scans stored in Photoshop that were not in Lightroom or were of lesser quality from being used in earlier lesser-quality posts. Here is photo one of the new older/better scans.
Rock Island 1265 is westbound in Joliet, Illinois on October 13, 1972. The red transfer caboose makes this local look complete.

Good one.

1265 was a fairly permanent stablemate in Joliet. 
I can remember having for power when I worked the Joliet-Bureau Turn.

Neat history of a "piece o' the Rock"!

A classic Joliet shot, thanks for sharing.

A classic local freight in action.
Tanks for the excellent post
ALLEN,

Nice!  I always like seeing UD tower in these shots, and I also like that Rock Island box car back in the consist!

Another great shot in Joliet.
