Illinois Central
South End
Mobile, Al; March 1998.
None other than Donald Trump was interested in this fine structure
to make a casino out of it. But reality quickly set as downtown Mobile
is not quite Atlantic City.
Mobile (McDuffie Island), Al; March 2000.
Sweet Home Alabama, Where the railfanning skies ar so Blue!
IC1012 and 1035, 2 SD70s, the new pride of the IC roster, brought the
coal train during the night and are waiting for their trip back North.
Mobile (McDuffie Island), Al; February 1998.
Another weekend, another set assigned to the coal train. This time,
IC 6016, an SD40-2 formerly SD40A, is in the lead with its Operation Lifesaver
logo.
The rest of the consist, that day, has 6123, 6107 and 6110.
Gramercy, LA; March 1997.
IC8292, one of the numerous GP 10 Paducah rebuilt still running today
is ready to serve the numerous industries located on the Mississippi River.
Gramercy, La; March 1997.
IC 8745, a GP 11, another product of Paducah, is encharged of the local
northbound to Baton Rouge.
Durant, MS; November 1998.
After driving all morning from Memphis in a middle of a tornado-spawning
storm, I decide to take a break. I find IC 8752, a GP 11, and
IC 9632, a GP38-2, both with an Operation Lifesaver logo parked in front
of the depot.
Jackson, Ms; November 1998.
On the same trip, I barely have time to set up for that shot. It is
another set of GP11-GP38-2 heading south from the yard. The clouds from
the storm are already catching up.
