CNW SD50's 7025 and 7032 haul a train load of rip rap westward toward Iowa on a dark rainy July 1993 saturday. The train is in eastern Illinois a few miles away from the Mississippi river crossing at Clinton IA. Although the flooding of the CNW's main line in Iowa had receded, the adjacent land was still pretty soggy in spots.
