Chicago & Illinois Midland

I believe I was in Springfield, Illinois, for this shot. We see some of the interesting power of this intriguing regional road, all from EMD.

Number 60 is an SD18 built in 1961. I think this is about when EMD put out their first factory-built low-noses; note the sloped short hood and one-piece windshield. Number 74 is a somewhat rare SD38-2 (90 were produced), built in 1974. And, barely visible, number 51 is an SD9 built in 1955.
