The Illinois Central Railroad, which is also referred to as the Main Line of Mid-America, ran in the central United States from Chicago to New Orleans along with many other branch lines.
The Illinois Central became a part of the Canadian National Railway in 1998. A time when many class one's were finding merging partners.
In this production Marshall Beecher along with William Beecher Junior, Mike Savona and Chris Laskowski, capture the IC's black beauties hauling freight along the IC system and beyond.
Marshall captures the Illinois Central before and after the CN merger in the mid to late 1990's on its main line from Chicago to Humboldt, Illinois.
William, Mike and Chris join Marshall following the Illinois Central in several other areas. Included is a portion of IC's Iowa Division from Galena, Illinois to Raymond, Iowa. Then we finish the show watching post CN merger trains on former Wisconsin Central and Green Bay & Western lines led with IC locomotives.
This show features many of the Illinois Central's locomotive power that was persistent on its main line trains. Locomotive models shown include E-9's, SD-20's, SD-40's, SD-40 dash 2's, SD-70's, GP-38 dash 2's and GP-40R's. Along with the IC, other road power is shown including Amtrak, Conrail, Chicago and North Western and Burlington Northern. IC's former electric commuter trains, now operated by Metra are also featured.
From the bustling city of Chicago to the farm fields of the upper Midwest, you will enjoy seeing this fallen flag hauling fast freight on the Main Line of Mid-America!

i love cvisions caboose trains i put them into playlists because i love the good ole' days plus freight trains play a very important role in the bussiness world.
Some really nice shots....many ideas for my layout. Much appreciated. Gary
Thanks, Gary! We’re glad to hear that you found this video helpful and enjoyable.
I like that little Switcher Shunter Locomotive @ 1:14! I used to see them allot on BNSF, then, BN Burlington Northern rail yards and in consist with other locomotives.
It is amazing that the little switchers are going away. I thought they would stick around for a lot longer.
I grew up near the IC’s Madison Branch in Wisconsin. Too bad nobody thought to record any rail action there.
I wish I had a camera and was 10 years older back then. I would have done it.
Good way to honor Casey Jones and the proud ICRR he loved being an employee for.
Thank you!
This is what I grew up with. I grew up in Bourbonnais near the Kankakee station. I'd go out and watch the IC/CN trains all the time. I sadly wasn't in the area until 1999 and so don't remember any original IC, but there was plenty of leave.
+SantaFebuff Nice! CN runs 4 of these on the ex Bessemer Sub! They also run in solid sets quite a bit pulling iron ore trains! It is quite a scene! In fact, I just caught a 2 unit power move on the Bessemer with both of the locomotives being IC deathstars (SD70s)
IC became a part of the Canadian National Railway in 1998, but it wasn't completely absorbed out of existence until July 1999.
Loved IC
Likewise!!! Thank you for your comments!

i dont' like ads on youtube
We understand, Kevin. It looks like they are here to stay, for better or worse. Thank you for watching the video.
Find a dealer who carries c vision dvds or order directly from c vision
and how does one go about getting a copy of this video?
how does this DVD look on an HD TV I assume this video is all unedited direct from the time it was filmed?
Thank you for writing Dustin. It was all shot with analog and first generation digital standard def video equipment. It is pretty good on a HDTV, but will not be HD quality.
@@CVisionProductions1 thanks for the reply
@@dustinsudkamp3722 You are very welcome!
Does this mean that the CN has tracks in New Orleans?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
CN acquired the IC to gain access to the Gulf of Mexico.
@@gregoryhainsworth2663 yet there still getting out classes by the bnsf and up
Whoa, whoa! Hold the phone! Did I just hear a k5lla on that locomotive in 1:52? The k5lla was first started production in 2004 and this video was shot in the 90s?!?!
Judging by the shape definitely not a K5LLA but more likely a New Cast Nathan P5 that had a few issues.
That was a Fouled P5a BUT the IC did have some K5la's on their Older "Geep" units sometimes.
At 3:54 their is a Rebuilt Gp10 with a 1st gen K5la.
Jacob Tompke mixed cast p5
Illinois Central was a good railroad.
Sure was!!! Thank you for writing!
Was it not ICG (Illinois Central Gulf) at one time?
Yes, it was. Prior to Illinois Central.
I hired on the CCP, after the rebuy i was certified south, i wouldnt doubt some if these jobs were mine.
It’s very possible! So you and other former CCP guys got qualified on the IC main south of Chicago? It’s good to know that those jobs were open to you. We appreciate the comment.
