Advice on travelling on the Chicago South Shore Line please

Oops [:)], thanks for pointing it out!

Still, good info.

Isn’t there a story about a “historic” steam locomotive that was in such bad shape after its running life, they took her number and put it on a better like-unit and then gave it to a museum for display? I remember reading this somewhere, thought maybe it was the 999.

The PRR did it twice with a K4 and an E6 as i recall.

Avoid direct eye contact with other riders and don’t let the cops know that you intend to snap photographs of trains, you may get arrested.
