Nice shots guys! I have to get to Deshler some time. One spot in Ohio I haven't gone yet.

It's in the works. Have 5 days worth of video to sort through. *!greengrin!*

Like the EJ&E. They are building a railfan park next to the junction with the CN's ex. IC main and EJ&E mains in Park Forest, IL. !!*ok*!!

I live about 10 mins. from that propsed rail fan park. The CN (ex EJ&E) did some extensive track work in the area.
There's a major interchange from the CN main (Illinios Central) to the EJ&E. Trains can enter in both directions
in wide loops. Its quite a sight. !!*ok*!!

A couple more. I think these last two might be the first GE's I've posted since the thread was revived.
