The Engineer Enjoys the Ride on a Nice Spring Morning
Title:  The Engineer Enjoys the Ride on a Nice Spring Morning
Description:  This is Rock Island's version of EMD's BL2. BL stood for "branch line" because the unit was lighter than a GP7. Here 17 year old number 429 is filling out its life in commuter service with a northbound morning rush hour train at Englewood Union Station on the south side of Chicago.
