Remarks & Notes

Burlington Northern “Expediter” intermodal No. 41 is about to clatter across the Chicago Central diamonds at East Dubuque, Illinois, on March 10, 1991. This very unique track arrangement is at the west end of shared trackage (Burlington/Illinois Central—later BN/CC) where the CC&P main line curves away from the BN’s near the East Dubuque depot, enters a curved tunnel through a bluff, pops out of the bore and immediately crosses BN’s double-track main, and onto a bridge over the Mississippi River. A model railroad-like track arrangement and scene!
