A Little Serendipity

At Summerail 2019 in Marion, Ohio, on Aug. 10 the second program of the afternoon was a look at the history of the Illinois Terminal presented by noted railroad author Mike Schafer.

Later that day the Illinois Terminal heritage locomotive of Norfolk Southern came through Marion on the point of train 375.

Coincidence? Probably, but it sure seemed appropriate. NS 1072 is shown about to cross the Mt. Victory Subdivision of CSX in Marion.
