Album Info:Caught the ArcelorMittal hot metal train as it headed into the Indiana Harbor Belt Michigan Avenue yard for its crew change before running to Riverdale, IL finishing plant. Caught up with it again as it approached the east end of Gibson yard in Hessville, IN, just south of East Chicago. Always find these cars fascinating! This explains why I've posted so many pics of them!
