IHB 1509 at Calumet - An SW1500 is light and is about to hit the CSX/IHB diamond at Calumet. This is a nice location to hit. Trackline coverage easily available. Access to the location is right off a main road. The IHB scheme is one that was around back in the 1940s I believe.

34 years old. Moved from Long Island New York to Altoona PA in 2009. Visited the NS Pittsburgh Line years before moving. I have become a fan of Steam Engines over the last 5 years or so. And the Union Pacific Steam engines are a big hit on my list. Exploring the country little by little when I have time.
