Seller ID: P338
Explore the exciting northern half of the Illinois Central Railroad from the industrial Chicago area through pastoral Illinois farmlands to the rural scenes of Fulton, Kentucky. Pentrex takes you on a journey down the main line where you'll see locals, switch jobs, through-freights, and fast intermodal trains hard at work. The IC intersects with a variety of other railroads on its southward trek and we'll spend time viewing Union Pacific, Conrail, Norfolk Southern, CSX, and Burlington Northern trains at these diamonds. Train symbols are provided to enhance your understanding of how the Illinois Central fits together as a system. The coverage is indicated by mile markers, and maps of each district help to identify what part of the line is being presented. A rundown of IC's current diesel roster explains what types of units are in use today. There are even a few surprises in store as extremely rare diesels make an appearance! The Illinois Central has proven to be a very profitable railroad and is a survivor in today's era of mega-mergers. Here's your opportunity to observe the action along the Main Line of Mid-America and to appreciate what for many has been a well kept secret! 99 Minutes In Color with Live Stereo Sound and Narration Packaged in Sturdy Vinyl Clamshell Case. Retail $29.95.
