The J has got to be my favorite. I loved the bright orange colors of the engines. There was no other railroad like that at the time. I could car less for CN now for scrapping that railroad out. They did the same to the Grand Trunk Western and the Wisconsin Central, 2 more favorites of mine. My dad lived in Griffith, IN back in the 60's and 70's and remembers the Chessie System, New York Central, Penn Central, Erie Lakawana and many more. The 3 I mentioned before I will always miss and remember
@Nachtwolf1 There Are Two Locomotives Around 1:14 One Is Canadian Pacific Which Another Would Be The EJE Railroad (CN). And Hudson Bay Railway Is Part Of The Illinois Railway Which Would Work Between Ottawa And Aurora Which Aurora Is Located 35 Miles West From Downtown.
Every IHB train with IHB power I've seen always has the same crews. Recently actual IHB traffic has increased, so I've been seeing similar faces multiple times now.
I think I forgot about this comment. Haha. The HBR units are property of the Illinois Railnet (OmniTRAX [OSS / OMLX] units). The CAR engine at 1:14 was total luck. I shot that on the CSX/ IHB in Bridgeview at 71'st Street (Toyota Park). It is an EMD F40 rebuilt to freight service on the Canadian American Railway.
Short Lines always have Cool paint Schemes! Great Job!
Love those IAIS pics! The J-Ball pics are sweet too!
What a great compilation! What is the unit at 1:14? And where did you see Hudson's Bay Railway locos in Chicago of all places?

Thanks! I'm sure you could youtube it and find a ton of different versions.
Thanks!

Haha thanks, and I agree, but I like rap too. :-)
The IHB is not bought out.
