Burnham, IL & Hammond, IN Trains 1986-1987
NS, CSS&SB, IHB, CSX, Amtrak, and Conrail. Several “bottle” (hot metal) trains are seen in these videos, as they were frequent users of the Conrail SC&S line - the Bernice Cutoff.
The Amtrak trains have appeared in some of my previous videos, but this will hopefully provide some additional context for them. Amtrak ran on the SC&S from Bernice to Colehour Jct.
Note that from April 27, 1986 to October 25, 1987 Amtrak referred to 317/318 (as well as 50/51) as “The Cardinal.” Here are the schedule references:

Amtrak F40PH # 307 [Audio & Video] - 1983-1989
Просмотров 138Месяц назад
Here is the audio (and 1 video) that I have of AMTK F40PH 307. It had a super K5LA in the early 1980s. It also had unusual narrow number boards which were replaced in the mid 1980s. After retirement, AMTK 307 eventually wound its way to the North Carolina Transportation Museum. These were all recorded in Elkhart, Indiana except for the video, which was recorded in Chicago. 00:00 Clayton Ave. - ...

Here are the audio & video recordings I have of AMTK 302. It had a uniquely-fouled K5LA for years, but after the unit was rebuilt it received a new horn. Also unique to 302 is before the rebuild it had all-black side numbers without the white outlines.

      There are a couple of small sections still intact, but most of it has been removed. Calumet Park to Bernice was removed a while back ~ 25-30 years ago, along with the PRR to Munster section that Amtrak used to access the Monon. Rails are still in place and used from Calumet Park to the B&OCT wye just south of Burnham. A recent photo shows the SC&S is out of service across the diamonds to 135th St. and looks like it might be removed in the near future. The rails are cut on the south side of Brainard Ave. Two blocks are still used from 135th St. to 132nd. North of there, the right branch (that part Amtrak used) is long gone to Colehour Jct. That section was removed about the same time as the south portion. It's now a bike trail from Wolf Lake up to Indianapolis Ave.
