IERR 5255
Title:  IERR 5255
Description:  There wasnt much for the IERR to do in the yard today, as their whole train for Fernald and the transload on the south side of Cottage Grove was all in one track. We hopped over to Stone Road to grab them pulling out of the yard and shoving back to their own rails.

IERR 5255
Title:  IERR 5255
Description:  The race south was on! We wanted to at least beat it to the Okeana High Bridge, but. we caught eye of the train between Bath and Peoria. There was a specific shot I wanted between the two towns, but it would have to wait for another day. We set up shop in Peoria and began our chase from there.

IERR 5255
Title:  IERR 5255
Description:  I didnt want to take any risks, so the high bridge was where we went next. We ended up waiting much longer than I had expected to, so we could have managed to sneak in a shot between the two, but, this one paid off as it always does.

Title:  IERR 5255
Description:  The Indiana Eastern arrives at Catexel in Fernald to begin their work. While it wasnt a full chase, we did pick off all the important shots from Peoria south! The day was starting out very well, but it was about to get better.
