Album Info:This album includes photos my dad and I caught after church on the 5th Day of our Galesburg Trip. This album features trains around the Galesburg and Cameron, IL areas. Our original plan was to follow the Mendota Sub to Mendota, but plans changed drastically when the trains started pouring non-stop into town. Enjoy!

BNSF 6194
Title:  BNSF 6194
Description:  We were finally able to get a little bit further east before being stopped by the next train. Another westbound coal train on the Ottumwa Sub. Sadly while we were waiting on this a westbound intermodel passed on the Transcon with 2 Warbonnets still marked for Santa Fe in train. The Transcon was blocked out by a corn field from where we were sitting so you could only see the tops of the engines.

AMTK 4614
Title:  AMTK 4614
Description:  AMTK 383, the westbound Illinois Zephyr, passes the BP Feed grain elevator, in Oneida, IL. This would be the final train of the day. Caught a total of 33 trains today, which brings the trip total up to 167. Pretty good day even though we didnt do what we were planning to do. Tomorrow though we will stick with the Mendota Sub for most of the day, starting in Mendota and working east. Will be considerably less busy tomorrow but we should still see some neat trains! So long to Day 5!
