    Quite a decent sized facility. I hope they haven’t overreached themselves financially;

    Open Rail Map shows a turning wye in the yard, can't see it in the photo (should be in the foreground, partly on the remains of a roundhouse).

    Better than the plastic tent that I watched it retire to after its final run in 2008, its rather surprising how hand to mouth many American groups are.

    I saw 261 twice in 2002. First at Galesburg, the final Rail day, and the day after passing through Rochelle. A very impressive machine. I particularly admired the illuminated motion and compressed air greasing - very slick.
