EJE SD38-2 #672 & #673 - former Elgin, Joliet & Eastern Rwy
Title:  EJE SD38-2 #672 & #673 - former Elgin, Joliet & Eastern Rwy
Description:  Note the "air conditioning" on this hot August day - both doors open. Makes it easy to go from one to the other too! The new turnout from the EJE mainline to the CN mainline can just be seem to the front left of the lead unit This must be a new "lay of the land" for these two returning units.

Title:  A 'J' on the "J'
Description:  For a short moment, the dreary January day brightened up when an old familiar face rolled through town behind a Canadian National ES44AC unit. The pair were heading east on the former Elgin, Joliet and Eastern Rwy mainline as it enters Griffith, IN.

Description:  Still growling as it trailed behind the lead CN unit, the "J" unit brought back many memories of it and its sisters growling through town.
