Hello everyone,

Here is my trip report for May 28th...I know, it's a little late! But I thought you would all enjoy the photos anyway! We saw CNW 8701 and UP 9089 (ex-CNW 8577) along with a UP work train headed for De Kalb, this train was loaded with every imaginable piece of work equipment, all with UP markings! From Buses to bulldozers, even a dining car! Photos below.

Total trains from 10:37 to 23:37: 43

Enjoy!

Thank you for the comment, I appreciate it! It was (as always) great to be in Rochelle, it may not be the best place to shoot trains, but it sure is a great place to meet and chat with other railfans!

Thanks again
