Illinois Central Rebirth in Decatur
Author: mtzctrain

Decatur has seen a good share of Illinois Central units still in IC paint recently.

1. Here I catch train A431 (Memphis to Decatur) rolling into Decatur at WABIC (Wabash-IC junction) on Sunday, March 31.
2. Train is rolling into the yard past the yard job.
3. A day prior, IC 3115 was in charge of the yard job on a rainy day (Saturday, March 30).

4. As the train rolled into the yard, some other heritage units sit at the fuel/sand racks awaiting assignment.
5. Roster shot of 1021
6. Roster shot of 1020

Thanks for looking!

I believe at least three days per week, CN-IC sends a run up to Pekin-East Peoria.

As power short as the CN is, I am not surprised.  These are the only other standard cab SD70's.
