First up we are at Des Plaines,Illinois and we have a UP empty coal train pulled by two GE's and then we have a CP train pulled by a SOO SD60 # 6026 and a ex Milwaukee GP40 # 2038, Next up is the star of the show Union Pacific Challenger locomotive # 3985 pulling a passenger special. Then we move to Elmhurst, Illinois where we see a Westbound empty coal train pulled by a EMD and Ex SP GE locomotives, then we have a Eastbound Metra train notice how folks just cross the tracks and put stuff on the track and just plain act stupid around the railroad which is why you don't see a lot of steam trains on the mainline.
