I get the trains back in the 90s weren't the 700 car monsters they are today, but crazy that they would throw 2 SD38's on at Galesburg and run a decent size train it to Northtown with no issues. The train wouldn't make much for track speed, but it made it. In all honesty, the trains today go about as fast with 4,000-8,000 additional horses riding along.
The 1238 is ex-Reserve Mining, which became the LLPX 2802, and now is the IAIS 150.
Scanned Slide from June 1995.
