We're at the La Rose (IL) road crossing of the Santa Fe transcon in Central, Illinois. No date on this except to guess late fall '93. Two trains in the sequence, both westbound, with great lashups. Once the camera gets focused, Amtrak's Southwest Chief has just passed a freight. The Chief is led by #827(?) a GE P42 DC, a GE P32-8, and an EMD F 40 PH. The freight features Bluebonnets led by a GP35 # 2930, a GE B23-7, an F 45 cowl unit, and a rare SD45-B engine. Credit: C. R. Miller archives. All rights reserved.
