Chasing trains on the NS Illinois Division - 09/24/08

[TRNBUF]

I was in the mood for chasing some NS trains this past Wednesday. So
I dialed up Big "J" this time to see if he wanted to tag along and he
said "lets go"!!! Our first stop was Dix to catch an NS #96E (rail
train) and NS #223. We then traveled up towards Centralia for NS #112
& NS #239, then Posey for NS #239 again, and ended our short afternoon
trip at Bartelso with NS #111. Over all, not a bad afternoon for the
Norfolk Southern. It was getting too dark for a photo of NS #111, so
I made a video of him. Enjoy...
