De-icing the Crossing
Title:  De-icing the Crossing
Description:  Upon arriving in Lemont around 2 PM, I was surprised to find a crew attempting to de-ice the crossing still. They appeared to be having some difficulty. Nothing has yet moved on the north main today, which is the track they are working on.
