Empty Auto-racks going through Belvedere.

Empty Auto-racks going through Belvedere.

Belvedere, IL is the home to a Chrysler assembly plant. This train is returning empty Auto-racks to the plant. The lead unit is an ex-CGW SD40.
Oops, my bad. I thought all the gong nosed SD40's were ex-CGW units. Let me know what it is and I'll gladly ammend the text.
 
You've taken a wonderful photo!- and while the 6922 isn't ex-CGW, she was one of two SD40-2s painted in 1976 in the Falcon Service scheme for the CNW, the other- 6910 was wrecked in Minnesota in 1987. A rare bird indeed!
