We see the C&NW Railroad shortly before the takeover by the Union Pacific in Gurnee, Illinois. A very long mixed C&NW freight with SD40-2s and GE C40-8s heads SB on the "New Line" subdivision. Many freight cars are lettered for C&NW. Shortly thereafter, a waiting NB C&NW freight with Wisconsin Electric Powder River coal moves out to the main, pulled by new C40-8's.
