A nice 5 unit consist grumbles under me with a 123 car detour from Barstow. The train jumped on the BN via a special connector at Colona after a BNSF derailement, and took the Barstow Sub to Galesburg, and the old ATSFTranscon, or the Chili Sub, into Chicago, where it hopped on the IHB at McCook for the trip down to Riverdale Yard, aka, Blue Island. The entire train was bound for the IHB, so it ran with a BNSF crew, straight to Riverdale as a BNSF train.
