Remarks: Four scenes from South Bend, IN in Nov, 1983. Amtrak westbound just west of South Bend, Conrail C36-7 6598, 3 Conrail GP40's roaring with a CR GP15-1, CSS GP38-2's 2001,2000 west on the Chicago South Shore.
Wow! Like that high speed action. The Amtrak train with the F40s is a classic. I miss those cowls. Neat hearing the bell ringing at a fast pace.
The 2nd Conrail freight train was a dazzler seeing those EMD locomotives pitching up and down the tracks as it approaches.
Great job! Thank you for posting this :)
Cool old video!! Yeah that freight with the EMD power was bouncing all over the place! I bet that was a wild ride for the crew.
