Nice Illinois Central "Heritage" power, Ike. Anyone know why CP is running an Erie Lakawana Heritage unit? I figured that would be Norfolk Southern or possibly CSX.

We call em TriClops. Not that many built they were early wide/safety cabs from the late 80’s BN had some. Up had a few. SOO line had some. I know today BNSF has some running around as well as NS.

Burlington Northern rolling coal train somewhere in the Sand Hills of Nebraska. Great picture Unfortunately I can’t claim it as my own. Just a great shot of a TriClops

You know I also heard a train coming once...

...

Unfortunately I was doing a 'lill "Time" at the time

I remember it just like it was yesterday...

I hear the train a-comin', it's rolling 'round the bend
And I ain't seen the sunshine since I don't know when
I'm stuck in Folsom prison, and time keeps draggin' on
But that train keeps a-rollin' on down to San Antone

When I was just a baby, my mama told me, "Son
Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns"
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die
When I hear that whistle blowin', I hang my head and cry

I bet there's rich folks eatin' in a fancy dining car
They're probably drinkin' coffee and smoking big cigars
Well, I know I had it coming, I know I can't be free
But those people keep a-movin', and that's what tortures me

Well, if they freed me from this prison, if that railroad train was mine
I bet I'd move it on a little farther down the line
Far from Folsom prison, that's where I want to stay
And I'd let that lonesome whistle blow my blues away

That whole Folsom Prison show is a timeless classic.

A very nice photo OC. I like the light and shade aspect of it. Not at all common in train shots.

Does anyone have photos of Rock Island and/or Illinois Central engines?

Posted: **Sun Jun 25, 2023 1:40 pm**

A couple of Rock Island shoots. I don’t know who the original photographer is.

Posted: **Sun Jun 25, 2023 1:47 pm**

Thank you Santa Fe. I never saw that color scheme on RI before.

Posted: **Sun Jun 25, 2023 2:16 pm**

The Rock, pretty cool.

It was called bankrupt blue. Rock island management tried to Improve their corporate image but it was too late they ended up going bankrupt
