CHICAGO & NORTHWESTERN--4288 at Rockford, IL
This is a Chicago & Northwestern GP10, #4288, that is doing some switching in Rockford, IL. With all the monster freights out there, it's nice to see this local doing routine switching, but scenes like this are still an important aspect of railroading. C&NW, of course, was absorbed by Union Pacific in the early 1990s.June 13, 1988. © 2024 Peter Ehrlich.

Rockford, Illinois, Part Two
A few posts ago we saw a movement along the north/south Milwaukee Road in Rockford; here I follow up with a meet along Illinois Central’s east/west line to Iowa. I believe the first shot is taken on the west side of the Rock River, at Corbin Street, while the meet happens at Buckbee Siding on the other side, at 8th Street.
In the final image we see numbers on the signal post that indicate we’re 85 miles west of Chicago. Also, there’s a switcher in the consist, but probably not running, as I think it’s to be delivered to the Cedar Rapids and Iowa City Railway down the line.
Five photographs by Richard Koenig; taken November 27th 1976.

SquidKeegan's Rockford is now on GMOD! In the SquidKeegan world, Rockford is home to Off the Hook, OctoKeegan, Daxton, Tracer, and Captain Cuttlefish. Tracer's house has got SquidKeegan teared up though. Could it be...?👀

Rockford, Illinois, Part One
This is a northbound movement on the Milwaukee Road in Rockford, Illinois. We first see the train at Buckbee Street where it will soon cross the Illinois Central. A person on FB, Conrad Baker, helped me find these locations.
The next two shots come from Cedar Street: the train has since crossed over the Rock River and is ducking under the Chicago & North Western. In the going away shot, it is entering what used to be a small yard. That lead unit was built for the Milwaukee in 1949.
One might not think of northern Illinois as being part of the Rust Belt, but looking at a USGS map of this era, one sees just how busy this place must have been back in the day. In addition the roads mentioned above, the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy seems to have had a branch line here—marked BN here, which shares a bridge with the Milwaukee Road.
Three photographs by Richard Koenig; taken November 27th 1976.
