Canadian National's Centralia Subdivision (Part 1)

From April to September of 2023, I was able to cover just about every location on the CN Centralia Subdivision between Cairo and Sandoval Junction in southern Illinois. The only major location I was unable to get a shot at was Cairo as it's not exactly the most glamorous place, plus there was no decent area to watch trains cross the Ohio River bridge into/from Kentucky that I know of. Nonetheless, I hope y'all enjoy!

nice CN trains also the crossing at 8:45 I’ve never seen a crossing with that light set up that’s also a very neat thing to see! Plus it has IC era cantlivers!
