Image#3 C III Phase 3 by David R. Collins, on Flickr

One of Amtrak's very sharp looking Phase III heritage units, #145, takes a breather as it leads Amtrak's lakeshore limited #49 at it's station stop in Elkhart, Indiana. The title for this picture is a reference from Railroadfan.com's chat box.

ImageWabash Floodplain by Jonathon Leese, on Flickr

Indiana Railroad's HWSZT has just crossed the Wabash River and is now rolling east through the floodplains, headed for their next stop at Linton. Would've been nice to see them do their work across the river in Palestine, IL, but the closest road bridge is 30 miles away! 4/3/2022

ImageCH 146 by Jonathon Leese, on Flickr

A venerable SD40-2 rolls east by milepost 146 with L303-26. Of course, this power set only stuck around for a few days, but the pairs of Gevos seem to stay on this train for months! 3/26/2022

ImageUP SD40-2 #3300 "United Way" by Jonathon Leese, on Flickr

Union Pacific SD40-2 #3300, specially painted in the "Pulling For United Way" scheme, was just one of close to 100 SD40 types in storage at the former DRGW Burnham Shops in Denver in 2010. This photo was taken with permission, and the employee who showed us around on that day was very accommodating as he accompanied us up and down the rows of stored locomotives. While many of these engines never worked for UP again, #3300 was one of the lucky ones, being rebuilt as an SD40N in 2014. 7/22/2010

ImageFarmersburg by Jonathon Leese, on Flickr

ImageThe Elkhart I Remember by Jonathon Leese, on Flickr

An ex Conrail C40-8W and a BNSF SD40-2 (#1958) duck under the old New York Central signal bridge with a westbound intermodal in Elkhart. Today the Dash 8, the signal bridge, and even both of the mainlines here are gone. The mains moved to the left of the bridge after a major reconfiguration of CP 421. The bridge itself was donated to the National NYCRR Museum, some of who's collection can be seen in the distance.

As a side bar, I always thought these ex CR Dash 8s looked really weird in NS paint, particularly these early repaints that didn't get the white brow. 10/2/2010
