Empty grain train for DeLong rounds the Oak Grove Rd. curve         
Thanks to a timely heads up on the Facebook group, I got here just in the nick of time to catch this. This is on a short (3-ish mile) stub of the former Kenosha-Rockford "KD Line," this portion of which also served to connect Harvard with South Beloit until sometime in the 1980s. Now its only reason for existence is to serve the DeLong (formerly Seegers Grain) elevator on the west edge of Chemung. The train will stop here and the UP power will go in the hole on the stub track to the right. DeLong's SW7 will then dart in and grab the empties.
