ECI Tour


Now just behind the trees, the ECI Special rolls on onto the countryside past the main yards of the ECI where a number of projects are underway. A caboose may be seen slightly off center and numerous cars and a twin hopper are in the foreground. The ECI still makes use of a caboose on a number of switching locals. And, yes, there are two steamers parked back by the diesel house.

Very nice, I'm looking forward to seeing more!

Welcome to the forums, glad to have you onboard.
 
The ECI passenger consist leaves the East Yards in June 2007 on its way to pick up passengers at the Anderson Station with F3A 1301 in the lead assisted by an F3B. It was photographed by a waiting railfan as it crosses the White River.

The round roofed shed would be a fairly unique model I would think. A building method that gets used here to reduce the amount of internal structural support a conventional pitched or gable roof requires.
 
The ECI Special pulls slowly by the Anderson Station to bring the passenger cars to the platform. A number of passengers have gathered at the station for this Saturday excursion to southern Indiana.
