Eastern Railroad Discussion > DLW/DRGW Heritage in Chicagoland

This morning was a Double-Heritage day around Chicagoland. First up, CP train 470 rolled into town for the BRC at Clearing Yard behind UP's Rio Grande SD70ACe 1989. Later as the clouds took over, a transfer for CP's Bensenville Yard arrived with NS's Lackawanna SD70ACe.

1-CP 470 on UP's Milwaukee Subdivision at Howard Avenue in Des Plaines.
2-CP 470 on CP's Elgin Subdivision at B12 Interlocking in Franklin Park.
3-NS 1074 on CP's Elgin Subdivision at B12 Interlocking in Franklin Park.
