New Sensation

Chicago Central #1719 shows off the new corporate color scheme in this May 1988 photo. I had caught it coming east the day before, and this was westbound train #11 the following day. This is at the famous Mile Post 22 location at S. Addison, IL The weeds in the foreground are now taller than the locomotive, and the siding is gone. Getting back in the car after this shot, the radio just happened to be playing the INXS song "New Sensation". Indeed it was.
