Indiana Harbor Belt Caboose #19 |
Description: |
Bobbing along at the end of a string of coil cars one afternoon at Dolton, IL, was this Indiana Harbor Belt caboose. I hate calling it a shoving platform (more modern term now) when it looks like it is performing the traditional caboose trailing action. |

Indiana Harbor Belt Caboose #19 |
Description: |
The string of coil cars stretches east with the little caboose at the end. The train slows for a moment and the conductor hops off - note the tiny man to the far right near the loco. At that point, the caboose is morphing before my eyes into a shoving platform. |

Newly Transformed Indiana Harbor Belt Shoving Platform |
Description: |
So within a few minutes, the entire Indiana Harbor Belt has morphed into a shoving platform complete with backup lights and the conductor with his hand on the whistle. |

Power Move Waiting |
Description: |
BNSF 9233 leads this NS 963 power move north as it sits in Granite City, Illinois, currently waiting for a crew to head for Decatur, Illinois. The power ended up holding just north of here for a few hours before a road crew arrived to take the power to Decatur. Engines in consist were pretty eclectic: BNSF 9233, NS 2674, NS 7571, NS 2701, NS 7661- NS 9844, NS 2579, & NS 9533. |
