PLEASE WATCH PARTS 1 & 2 FIRST, if you are new to this series. Well, it will make more sense if you do that.
In Part 1, posted back in April, we rode the C&O Sportsman from Columbus to Marion, Ohio, and the EL Lake Cities from Marion to Chicago where we did the CTA 101 fan trip. In Part 2, we rode C&NW #1 to Sterling, IL to see an 0-8-0 working the plant railroad at Northwestern Steel & Wire, then we returned to Chicago for a trip to South Bend, IN on the South Shore Line, billed as Americas last interurban railroad.
Now, in Part 3 we return to Chicago on the South Shore Line with a stop to explore activity around the shops and yard at Michigan City, IN.
