Train DC-7 lead by F3 units

Diesel Freight Train

Business from the auto industry and other sources in Detroit, gathered up the preceding day, leaves that metropolis in the early morning on DC-7, a manifest schedule calling for afternoon arrival at Gibson yard on the IHB. This Sunday edition of the train includes mostly empties in its 118-car consist. F units 1663-2404-1612 accelerate past the depot on the block of no. 355, just after leaving Niles yard where the train was doctored a bit during its brief layover.
