Purchase at -- www.greenfrog.com • Filmed over a 30 year period, from the 1950s to the 1980s, this episode records a very active period in the history of the Illinois Central Railroad. Beginning in the late steam era, many of the IC's massive locomotives are recorded in both freight and passenger service. • Scenes of these locomotives were shot on the mainlines, in the yards, and at servicing facilities. • • The transition to first generation diesels continues this history. In the mid 1970s the IC merged with the Gulf, Mobile Ohio to form the Illinois Central Gulf. The ICG owned over 9500 miles of track, and began selling off branch lines. • • By 1987 the railroad had trimmed the track to 3000 miles and it's name back to Illinois Central. The viewer will be intrigued by several rare scenes of night operations. • ~-~~-~~~-~~-~ • Please watch: Behind The Scenes at Green Frog • • Behind the Scenes at Green Frog • ~-~~-~~~-~~-~
