Toledo, Peoria & Western Railway pulls the eastbound Barnum & Bailey Red Unit train, up out of the Illinois River Valley with four matched Susie Q painted GP20R's. The train was photographed on a Monday morning after a show in Peoria. This photo is dedicated to the memory of longtime friend and railroad fan Bob Lehman of Bartonville, who passed away this week. Bob made the phone call to alert me of the trains operation.
