A lot of people wanted to run crossings today, and I caught a cop turning around to pull one of them over on tape.

Power is WSOR 4011, WSOR 4053 and WSOR 4010.

An IC SD70 + 3 Metra cars on an excursion to discuss a merger! Not, really, that would have been a cool merger though. I focused on cars this time, hence the song I picked. Filmed at the Fever River Model Railroad club.
