ATSF 3158
Much has changed since this shot was taken back in August of 73. Amtrak #3 is loading passengers while this eastbound piggyback train rolls through with an Alco Alligator as second unit. This pic was rejected by Railpics so enjoy.

Wow if this is a road train must have been an interesting day at the power desk, the RSD-15s were great pullers but not real fast.

Impressive image, and interesting commentary about that "other" site - without detracting from those contributors they DO take, I believe the site moderators are a bit narrow-minded - and I've never tried to submit anything there. Again, excellent work Mr. Tracy!

Super shot!! The only thing that would have been better was GM&O F's on the adjacent track. Railpics must be run by idiots. I wonder if they have any clue what they're missing.

Nice shot. I had two really nice pictures rejected by that Web site, so I gave up on it. I enjoy RRPA.

Home page again 3-8-2016. Still a great shot. Railpics still is suffering from cranial rectal inversion.

Still marvel that Railpics rejected this. Yeah, it's a little grainy. But the composition is right on, and the historic value is superb. Excellent, and not typically seen, view of Joliet. Home page 06-19-2020
