Monday Morning Trains on Chicago's South Side

On February 20th, 2023, I ventured down to Chicago's South Side to see what I could find on my day off of school and I didn't end up empty handed! First I checked out the old ex-Santa Fe CF7 sitting at Reserve Marine Terminals in South Deering. I had hoped to see the engine moving, but it took too long for their train to get loaded and I decided to head down to the IHB in Hammond. Minutes after I got there, train BA2 came screaming by with the Belt's only GP40P-2 leading. I managed to beat the train to Cottage Grove where I caught them meeting another pair of geeps headed the opposite direction. I returned to the Indiana Harbor steel mill to watch CN's Lakefront local with a nice Grand Trunk blue pair. I followed this train to the west end of Kirk Yard at Pine Junction, where I spent the rest of my time watching a few switching jobs!
