Joliet - Upon arrival of the rail train from Maryland crews quickly went to work. All industrial trackage at Joliet is complete along with the main and siding. The CB&Q local served as a test train switching all the industrial trackage. All have passed inspection. Joliet is my favorite place to hang out on the local so far. Awesome switching opportunities there.
Rock Island - Industrial track has been cut and temporarily in place. A local has worked the industrial trackage. All have passed preliminary testing. The track will be permanently affixed later this weekend.
Our company photographer was in the area today providing the photos below:

ReplyDeleteThat's all looking great. I really like the crossing at Joliet, and all of the industrial trackage. Very cool.
