Our crew at A-Train4014 Productions has been pretty productive out trackside for the past few days and we continue it out trackside again at Rondout, IL. We arrived just as the morning rush hour concluded. The weather continued to be very windy but eventually, the weather improved to the point where we didn’t need our winter coats. The action at Rondout started off pretty busy just as the morning rush ended with a CN local running across the diamond along with Canadian Pacific freight trains squeezing in. It wasn’t our best day out trackside at Rondout but we still had fun from being there at the end of the morning rush till the end of the evening rush. Enjoy this video presentation from Rondout, IL on the CP C&M Subdivision.

I always enjoy coming to this spot late at night. Pretty fun to watch Wisconsin Southern freight trains branch off towards Libertyville like the Metra trains
