3 UP Heritage engines in Illinois

Following is the URL for a few photos I took yesterday (7/6) of the MKT, DRGW, and SP Heritage engines going east to Proviso Yard in Illinois on the UP mainline.

359-1 is spectacular, Dennis. Very nicely executed. Thanks for sharing!

(“Space” at the end of the URL does it.)

Since I wouldn’t be able to see them, didn’t pay too much attention to the notice of their pending arrivals. Katy, Rio Grande and SP way off home territory! Neat! Nice work.

You’re welcome, Chris!

Thanks for the compliments, Jeaton!!! Glad you enjoyed the photos.

Thanks for sharing Photobug ! I sure would like to see the DRGW and SP units here in Tx. Shoot,I’d like to see the Katy or the MOP units here in Tx. (LOL) Seems they always come thru here at night…Danny

Hi, Danny, and thanks for your compliments. Hey, it was such a rare event to see these Heritage engines in Illinois, I had to stop everything I was doing to get some photos. Who knows, I may never see them again!!!

Great photos [tup]

I can only hope they make it down to KC or St. Louis when i am there next week. I know before they went west for the photo shoot the MKT and MP units frequented the yard at Dupo, IL
