EJ&E's Kirk Yard to Joliet switcher heads west through Griffith with a leased pair of Helm's only SD38-2's. They have been rebuilt from old UP SD40-2's by removing the turbo's.

2 of the EJ&E's bright orange SD38s work to get back underway after switching out the small yard used to interchange with the CNIC at Matteson.

The J local rumbles through Griffith as it works its way west toward Joliet.

A pair of J SD38s leads a local south through Griffith, IN. This was the third train through here in about 20 minutes.
