Wow, Thanks just found your page great stuff
Really enjoyed this……thanks for sharing 👍
At 2:45, looks to be the south end of Lake Pepin, Wisconsin side, looking west, just east of the town of Pepin, Chicago bound.
Another one of your excellent videos on the CB&Q. At 2:16 the location is the Clyde Yards, I recognize to the left side of switcher the steeple of the Mary Queen of Heaven Church in Cicero, Ill.
You have a very good eye! I grew up in Galesburg, IL. Had relatives in Chicago and Denver so I rode the Burlington Route numerous times. Good childhood memories. Have not ridden on a train since 1964. I have a cousin that works at one of the BNSF yards in Chicago.
@@Foomba Thank you, I went to every Galesburg Railroads till 2006,What a wonderful place We moved from Chicago and Naperville area to Texas. I Have many RR Days posters and display them in my Garage and train room. I have the 2016 poster of the Redbird and Blackbird locomotives on the wall next to my desk. I also had the Special License plates issue for the event for all the years up to 2005. I am sure we past each other at one time or another.
