BNSF 868 meets BNSF 5036, 4521 W, Oregon, Ill, 8.24.2013         
While waiting for a historical society meeting to take place in the CB&Q Depot in Oregon, Illinois, we waited as trains passed. This locomotive was parked for a few days with sand cars behind it, and the end of the track in front of it. Not sure why or how it got into that spot, but my dad sent me photos of it on Tuesday, and on Saturday it was still here. I have some photos of it from inside the depot, and some shots of the Savanna Eola departing from inside as well, but over all, this is a true heritage unit, in an unlikely place. The passing train was a mixed freight as well headed westward.
