After the game and a mandatory dinner at Portillo’s, I swung by Seeger in Des Plaines on the way back to Mount Prospect. Lo and behold, a grain empty was swinging off the New Line and crossing over to the middle track and taking their sweet time. Since my crossings were blocked, it was easy to convince the Mrs that chasing and GTS was of importance. We came alongside the SD40N leading at the Mount Prospect METRA station and Grady was all about chasing. We went a little further up the line so I could cross over and park. UP 1948 North had just cleared Seeger and began notching them out for the trip Harvard and beyond.
