Illinois Terminal SW1200 on the move
Author: Off-pending

The former Illinois Terminal SW1200 784 is moving on its way to its new home at the Monticello Railway Museum. A CSX local picked up the unit yesterday in Bridgeport AL to start the journey. The loco is moving as RPCX 784. CSX will handle to Cincinnati and then NS will move it to Monticello.
We would love to see pics of the unit enroute. So if you happen to catch it, snap a quick pic.
And if you feel so inclined, a GoFundMe page has been set up to fund this acquisition and the C&IM 31. Donations will be used to offset shipping costs. More info can be found at the museums Facebook page or at www.mrym.org.
The GoFundMe campaign can be found here:
