More Death Star
Given the previous post, I dug around and found one more image of the final Illinois Central livery, reminiscent of the early days of diesels on the Mainline of Mid-America. I imagine this would have been in Mattoon, Illinois or thereabouts.
I looked up the main unit visible here: it happens to be former GM&O number 921, an SD40 built in 1966.
One image by Richard Koenig; taken 1991 or 1992.
