| Milwaukee 261 and Galesburg RR Days | |||
| I met up with railfan friends Tom McNair and John Dziobko in Chicago on Friday night, June 26th, to be in position to chase the Milwaukee Road 261 steam engine to Galesburg, IL. RR Days celebration. Friday night we pick off some south Chicago freight action, and the next morning we are in position at Roosevelt Road in Chicago to catch the MILW 261 departure for Galesburg over the ex-BN Mendota sub. It is a hot, humid day in the heartland, and we are able to intercept and photograph the train along the way, and fortunately the air conditioner worked great in our car! | |||
