The Empress CP 2816 Chase Part 2
During its visit on May 8th, 2816 came out of Bensenville yard and was shown to the public in Franklin park Illinois. Then later in the day the engine made its way into the city to be turned around and then return to Bensenville yard for its journey to its next destination. On a rainy morning of May 9th, we follow the Empress on its next leg of its journey from Bensenville, to Sabula Iowa on former Milwaukee Road trackage. This would be our final time seeing the beautiful Hudson as it continues its journey to Mexico.

    The ex-C&NW RTA E-units always kind of lived in relative obscurity in the shadow of the BN units operating just a few miles to the south. Glad to see someone got so much footage of them! Interestingly, they were often spotted on the weekends, perhaps being pressed into service while the "weekday" power remained on their trains at West Chicago, Waukegan, Crystal Lake etc...

    I wonder if there is such a searchlight signal that has red, lunar white, and green roundals (used under a unit with red, yellow, and green roundals). This combination could be used for a track leaving ctc territory and indicate high speed signaling (lunar white used for track leaving CTC territory and bottom green using for Approach Clear 50/60 indications)

    Looks like some scenes at Waukegan before the new station was built near the very end, not sure if it starts at 13:45 or just the last minute. You can see the coach yards and station, and then as the camera pans all the cars with empty boat trailers that likely launched at the harbor that day.
