IHB 1503
Title:  IHB 1503
Description:  Since this was thc first time we had ever railfanned in this region, we tended to get lost quite a bit. We stumbled across Gibson Yard by accident, and we also stumbled across this by accident. S“tting on a side track at CP 100, the beginning of NSs Kankakee Line, there was an IHB switcher awaiting to come onto the main line by the Arcelor Mittal Plant outside of Whiting.

IHB 1503
Title:  IHB 1503
Description:  As IHB 1503 switches on a side track, we get one last shot before continuing on our way to find Pine Jct. Should have#gotten it beside that bracket signal! But oh well. Sadly the NYC and CR signals are slowly going to start coming down in 2018.
