Due to the wildfires that we're raging in Canada at the time, Almost the entire US was covered in a hazy fog. I decided to venture out on June 27th, unaware of the haziness that was over the state of Illinois. Metra 211 is seen trailing on an Inbound from Aurora, only beginning the trek towards Chicago.

A recently delivered Metra MACH sits outside of the EMD facility in McCook, IL. This Metra MACH should be put into service sometime in 2024 / 2025. This will definitely be a new future and generation for Metra. Built as KCS (Kansas City Southern) SD70MAC #3965, this locomotive went under a huge overhaul at Patterson, Georgia progress rail shops.
