Insurance Dubuque

Mainlines, shortlines, specials and more. The Midwest is full of railroad action and C. Vision brings some of it to you in “Trains Across the Midwest, Volume 2!” We begin our railroad journey in Illinois, where Illinois Central trains encounter a tunnel at East Dubuque. Then we head to Joliet to view fast mainline action on the old Santa Fe. Metra trains also pass two towers still standing today! Electric traction locomotives on the Iowa Traction are featured, along with I&M Rail Link trains before the IMRL was purchased. In Wisconsin, Canadian Pacific trains encounter the tunnel at Tunnel City. We also revisit the Marshall Subdivision of the Burlington Northern Santa Fe. Many special movements are captured in this video including a Light Rail Special in the Twin Cities. C. Vision cameras were also on hand to document an Operation Lifesaver Special on the BNSF. Regional railroads Twin Cities & Western and Dakota Minnesota & Eastern also appear running special trains. Fast mainline action, diverse shortlines and specials make the Midwest one of the best places to watch trains. You can see it all in “Trains Across the Midwest, Volume 2!” Copyright 2002 C.
