Another new video.

Today I went out yet again with the intention of filming some stuff down South starting off with trying to intercept CSX I115 with the Family Lines Heritage Unit in the lead. But it soon evolved into a mad dash around the area from Chicago Ridge to Hammond to Bartlett to Des Plaines and finally ending in Mount Prospect. Quite a few interesting trains including an extremely stacked lash up on a grain train on the CN. Enjoy!
