CN America 250th Units Lead OCS Through Illinois + GT Duo + EJ&E Geep!

Canadian National advertised doing a whistle stop tour across the northeastern portion of their network for Employees and Families to celebrate the nations 250th with the railroad. A test run was performed the day prior to the tour beginning, and we get to see two of the best looking America 250th locomotives in action with the OCS in several parts of Illinois. A real treat that day as well was a local with a pair of Grand Trunk GP's leading the charge, and CN L515, with several standard cab and 4 axle locomotives in trail, including a former EJ&E and a CN Zebra stripe. *disclaimer the music was added due to the excessive wind noise on the pacing shots, and a neat nod to the former Illinois Central City of New Orleans route that the train was traversing in the video.
