Chillicothe, IL August 9th 2004 - The Chilli Sub in the Good Old Days

My old stomping grounds...I spent many many hours railfanning in Chillicothe by the old Amtrak depot. This is just some of the stuff I used to see. All the footage used to make this video was taken on August 9th of 2004. Sorry about the wind noise in some of the clips. All video was taken and edited by me. Thanks for watching. More to come. Enjoy!

Thanks for posting this. Chillicothe is my hometown, and my daughter loves videos of trains, so it's nice to be able to show her come trains going through Daddy's hometown!

Spent some good time here, along with Galesburg and Edelstein.
Miss the old Santa Fe.

Now they hold it just East of Ancona right there where Route 17 heads under the Chillicothe Subdivision. Or sometimes the DS also holds them out by Toluca it all depends.

@railfanstreator94 Im not totally sure but i would guess that it was the H-PASCWY....they used to hold it there until the NS was ready for it at streator.
