Chicago & Northwestern personality and color are still abundant on this high traffic former CNW, now Union Pacific route west out of Chicago. We’ll see a wide variety of trains and motive power from GP-7s to the new SD-90MACs… and even Union Pacific 4-8-4 Northern-type steamer #844 in excursion service at several locations. Most power (not #844!) is still in CNW colors.

More than 50 trains! Locations include La Fox, Maple Park, DeKalb, Rochelle, Nelson, Fulton and Clinton. Volume 1 covers the former CNW Geneva Sub east of Geneva.

This is vintage nineties footage, shot using nineties equipment. It is not as sharp as programs shot today. Still, these are interesting scenes, many not covered elsewhere, and the narration is informative and top notch.

    A few years ago, my wife & I made the 2,100km trip to watch trains in northern Illinois. This video does a great job showing some great railfan locations west of Chicago to the Mississippi. Had we seen this video then, we would have been able to see so much more than we did see. MVP has done excellent covering the territory in the video. I really enjoy the action at Clinton Iowa and the crossing of the great river. The only thing that may be a downfall in this video is the picture quality…. it is older, and the colour has faded some.

    Take a look of UP operations after the take over of the Chicago and Northwester through northern illinois. A interesting fact is the operation of left hand running the UP kept on this line. See many CNW units and the newest UP power. See the UP 844 running on a steam special. A must have for any UP fan.
