Amtrak blows by headed West at 70 MPH.
1 hour late @09:45 crossing the Meramec River, Thanksgiving Morning.
After stopping at LaGrange Rd. depot, AMTK 348 hi-balls East with 1 of 2 ramaining Phase III P42's in charge.
AMTK 30 (one of two remaining Phase III P42's) and AMTK 519 sit light power on the Metra side of the North Concourse. Why they were placed here is unknown to me but made for a great surprise.
Amtrak 348 flys through Brookfield, IL.
AMTK 30 on 347's train minuets after departing Union Station.
One of the last few Phase III locomotives on a Michigan service route.
