That's an escape track in case a train loses its brakes on the downgrade. Its purpose was to derail it at a slower speed than it would achieve further down. There was another escape track at the bottom of the grade at Melrose of considerable length. It went up a mountainside. There was a timing circuit here and only when a train had taken the proper time to assure it was under control, did the switch at Melrose move to direct the train onto the main line.

Gotta love that classic diesel footage. Used to ride the West line to Geneva and the North line to Great Lakes & Kenosha. Also lived looking at the Elgin Milwaukee Rd station. They used to keep the locomotives at a slow idle in the “parking area”

Um review bastante tosco de um excelente carro. Acabo de comprar um EXPO 1993 e está em ótimas condições, mesmo com quase 30 anos o interior parece quase novo. Arrancar o esguicho de água pra dizer que o carro tem má qualidade chega a ser infantil. Bom, todos esses anos que passaram mostraram que este carro é realmente bom e continua sendo uma boa opção de 7 lugares.

I was working on a track survey thru there in 1985. I almost jumped out of the FRA test car T-10. It was an old Budd SPV, and it's brakes wouldn't hold us as we started to head downhill. 2 Southern (actually Norfolk Southern but no repaint yet!) SDs following us just in case sped up and coupled onto us in the fly, then slowed us to the proper speed. I had the door open and the front vestibule open and trap door sprung. I was the forward observer and didn't wan to be an airbag. Puckered up quite well. I had more adventures, wrote about them in TRAINS, Sept 09, Riding the rails with Riley. " Hope to get there again someday.

My all time favorite motive power that the CNW had for its *scoots* was the E8 with *Chicago and North Western* on the sides. Plus my Grandpa Carr's beloved EJ&E *Easy Jobs for Everyone* was Grandpa's favorite acronym for the J now part of CN. What used to be the CNW is now Union Pacific, but Metra does what the old CNW proudly did in the 1970s. And Metra has some of those CNW era bilevels!

It looks like the J had only recently been single-tracked. I bet CN wishes that had never been done. Didn't expect to see commuter trains stored in Barrington as I thought the service had always gone to Harvard.
@scoobycarr55584 жыл бұрын
The stored commuter trains that you saw on the CNW were for the morning and evening rush periods. Plus, the CNW didn't always go out to Harvard. Most of the CNW's trains went out to Crystal Lake and returned to Chicago. Others went to Barrington and the rest went out to McHenry. The CNW's train frequency in both weekdays and weekends (that also includes the train numbers) is the same under successor Metra with the tracks owned and operated by Union Pacific.

Interestingly, there were two coach yards in Barrington. The first was just east the depot. When the new station was built in the mid-to-late 1970s, the yard was moved west of the EJ&E crossing.

That's from the sanders. The locomotives have a little nozzle in front of each wheel that shoots sand onto the rail for extra track adhesion. Its used while ascending steep grades or with wet rails, etc.
