Tim, I will email what I take for you. My son and I plan on hitting Franklin Park first and a Chicagoland hobby then scoot over to Rochelle and get some there.
I have a series of photo's from the Union Pacific Rr yard in North Platte, Ne. I'm not much of a Rail buff , But the Yard was very Impressive.
Grabbed this shot of an Amtrak that had just arrived at Richmond, Va's Main Street Station last Saturday (6-19) while I was shooting at Burnin' Up The Bottom.
This was taken from just across Main Street, which the trestle crosses.
Engine 1 to all units, we've got a glow in the sky!

Thank you, Commish, for the excellent photos of UP's Bailey Yard in North Platte, NE. It is the world's largest railroad yard and was the feature article in the July (I believe), 2010 issue of Trains Magazine. My parents live in Omaha and every time I'm out there visiting from NJ I always tell myself to dedicate a day or two to head out to Bailey. Alas I've still not gotten there.
Thanks again for the great pics <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/luxhello.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> !
Quick question, The lightning bolt painted on CSX loco's by the unit's number means it's AC powered, correct?
