Remarks & Notes

On the former NKP Chicago-Fort Wayne line. The crew had "gone to beans" at a local eatery and left the motive power locked and idling on the main. They uncoupled from their train a half mile east of here, so as to not block the road crossings in town. This was a common practice during this era.
