A southbound grain train makes
it way down the Peoria Branch with a typical IAIS consist.
This shot really shows the Peoria branch at its best.
Yes, there is track down there.
At the Iowa Interstate's Peoria yard,
the P&PU transfer
arrives and exchanges paperwork with the IAIS
crew.
This small yard under the McCluggage bridge really provides with
some interesting switching work for the trains, especially during grain
season, when train lengths swell and strain the capacity of this
old CRI&P facility.
