Remarks & Notes

Cargill Camouflage. The Cargill grain elevators in Gilman, Illinois are served by a very distinctive switcher, CLCX 9698, Alco 2SM. Chattahoochee Locomotive Company rebuilt this Houston Belt and Terminal Railway #18 Alco S2 (8/1948) with a Caterpillar engine, improved lighting, and a number of other mechanical alterations, but the exterior would never be mistaken for anything other than an American Locomotive Works product. On the evening of Tuesday, February 2, 2021, sunset and snow complement the Cargill corporate colors as it sits awaiting the next day's work.

Nocturnal Nuances & Lights In The Night! (Between Sunset - Sunrise / Sundown - Sunup!) Album created by member Dana M.	Album Views: 444,972
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
