Typical afternoon train wise in Lisle, besides the IC C40-8W and CN C40-8M on a coal drag! (Last Scene)
Train 1: Due to 'Form B' restrictions, horn was required along with a set speed of no more than 25 MPH. The crew does just that. Not a bad horn, nor consist.
==========================================================================
Train 2: This was such a neat sound! Right as the pig cars clear a Metra with a pitch perfect P3 slams on the horn, causing for a neat echo and Doppler effect.
==========================================================================
Train 3: I guess the 'Form B' is over? Amtrak #3 does track speed through the work zone.

Train 4: Typical Metra P5 flies through Lisle
==========================================================================
Train 5: THIS WAS THE CATCH OF THE DAY FOR SURE! As I am biking back from MP26 I see what look like C40-8W head lights, so I freak out thinking no matter what it's going to be foreign power. As it gets through the platforms I see a blue nose, and freak out once more that a Conrail is on the lead! As it gets closer to Yackley I see that all the cars are the same, coal hoppers. Again I freaked out, holy shit a Conrail C40-8W is leading a coal drag on the BNSF! Then I see the second engine, a CN C40-8M. No logo on the front, and a big IC on the side, IC 2465 with a fantastic pitch perfect Leslie RS3L fly through MP 25.7 on the Chicago Sub.
