Railfanning Illinois And Indiana 5/29/24

A lot of neat things showed up today.
Originally I had plans to go railfanning on Tuesday but due to some storms that struck the area, I decided against it, which in turn actually worked out better for today as a lot of neat stuff was running. The day prior I had heard that CSX M367 had CSX 3194 and 1982 in the lead so I made my way out to Willow Creek near Portage, IN to intercept them, but not before getting some stuff at Franklin Park, La Grange, and Dolton, some of which included KCS' "Saluting KCS Heroes" unit and a short CF&E train that didn't have the standard YN2 duo and then finishing up the day at B17 in Bensenville to intercept a KCS Gray Ghost Geep, which was interesting. Overall, not a bad day. Enjoy!
