UP5961 West in DeKalb, IL 9/14/24
Locomotives: UP5961, UP5326, UP8691
Train Symbol: UP MALG3
Sub Division: UP Geneva Sub
Grade Crossing: 1st Street
Taking my videos without permission is prohibited!
I waited until the perfect time to go out and get a westbound with evening lighting. I wanted to get it by the Southwestern Pedestrian gate at First St because I wanted a zoomed in view of a WB coming around the corner at Route 23&38. It came out great and this is the result.
