Freight on the Norfolk Southern

Marsha and I made our trip to Chicago by train on March 28 from the Amtrak station in Ann Arbor (243 miles to Chicago). Our coach was the last car on the train, and I spent a little time sightseeing from the rear window. Just into Illinois, we overtook this freight train on the Norfolk Southern (former New York Central) mainline.

The structure of a railroad lift bridge over the Calumet River can be seen in the background.
