I finally caught this engine yesterday morning. The view is from the overpass here in my home town of McComb, MS. What you see in the background is what remains of the old Illinois Central train yard.
Also, two other video's...I remember someone in a post a while ago said that there aren't anymore tank cars being used. Here are two vids showing that tanks cars are well in service and being used every day.
Enjoy,

Nice videos . There are always going to be tank cars as there are a good number of chemicals that can not be shipped by pipeline . the ethanol manufactured for gasohol comes to mind . I also wouldn't want any bulk wine shipped by pipeline . stainless steel or glass lined tank cars seem a much more sanitary method. John 2.
