ICG 6002
Title:  ICG 6002
Description:  In the Fall of 86 I stumbled upon a string of SD40s in the MoPac/UP Chouteau Ave yard in Sy. Louis. For years I had assumed that they were bound for either re-sale or a more inglorious fate. Such was not the case, however, for ICG 6002. It would be re-built to an SD40-2R and continue to pPy the rails in IC black for another 20+ years. .

ICG 6004
Title:  ICG 6004
Description:  OK, this one is not in Southern Illinois. This unit coal train is on the Missouri Pacific heading estbound into St. Louis. ICG ran coal drags on MOP from Kansas City to power plants in Illinois. Even though those plants are in the middle of Illinois coal mining country, they had to import low-sulphur coal from Wyoming to meet EPA requirements.

ICG SD40 6005
Title:  ICG SD40 6005
Description:  ICG SD40 6005, Paducah, Kentucky, June 25, 1986, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Pretty clean paint, I'm going to suggest that it had been shopped recently. Built as IC 6005 in December 1967 (c/n 33249) on EMD Order 5732, it became ICG 6005, was rebuilt into SD40-2R in June 1996 becoming IC 6005 again, retired on March 11, 2009, declared surplus, and became ASDX 6005. As I recall, this is new power for a coal train sitting on the track to the right. These locomotives will replace several GP10's that have already been cut off the coal train and are on a siding out of the frame in the lower left about a half mile.

ICG GP8 7709
Title:  ICG GP8 7709
Description:  ICG GP8 7709, Paducah, Kentucky, June 25, 1986, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Number 7709 was built in June 1952 as P&LE GP7 5722 (later renumbered to P&LE 1515, c/n 16349) on EMD Order 6369. During 1974 it was rebuilt at the ICG's Paducah, Kentucky Shops to GP8 7709. It is seen here cutting off a coal train. The 7709 and associates will pull ahead and off on a side track. The 6005 will then pull up and couple onto 7709's train and leave town. I'm not sure why this happened, since 6005 has cut off a coal train (seen in the background) except to speculate that 7709 had some ailing power in its consist, or perhaps then ICG needed to balance power on its system.

ICG Grain Train (1)
Title:  ICG Grain Train (1)
Description:  Illnois Cenral Gulf GP10 8216, SD40 6056 and U33C 5058 were on a southbound grain train crossing the bridge across Pass Manchac, Louisiana. The new concrete structure was completed in 1972 and replaced the wooden trestle next to it. The train will have to reverse direction in Kenner, just west of MAYS YARD, to get to one of the grain elevators along the Mississippi River, so it has a caboose on each end. The 199510 is behind the engines and the 199596 is on the rear.

Grain Train
Title:  Grain Train
Description:  An interesting assortment of locomotives lead a southbound grain train across Pass Manchac, about 40 miles north of New Orleans. When this photo was taken, grain trains usually ran with a caboose on each end, as the power had to run around the train in Kenner before heading up the former Y&MV line to the elevators along the Mississippi River.
