Railfanning the NS Chicago Line across Indiana (Oct. 6 - 8, 2023)

While up in northern Indiana to see Nickel Plate Road #765 on the Indiana Northeastern Railroad, I opted to catch as many trains at as many locations as possible along the busy NS Chicago Line. During my time along the line, I would see 45 trains total over 3 days with a fair variety of motive power from various railroads. With that, I do intend to return to the Chicago Line in the near future for more action whenever I can! I hope y’all enjoy! 10/06/2023 Sedan: NS 276 NS GE ES44AC #8075 NS GE AC44C6M #4322 NS GE AC44C6M #4474 NS 03T (AMTK #29 “Capitol Limited“) AMTK STS ALC-42 #334 Kendallville: NS 310 UP GE C44ACCTE #6068 NS GE D9-44CW #9???
