At 3:50 PM, the dispatcher lets the first train go through after #5 hit the car which it and the demolished car can be seen on the left. This is an eastbound stack train to Cicero Yard with an SD60M in the lead passing the Berwyn Metra Station. Trains are only allowed on the south track since #5 is on the middle track and the car is on the north track

Amtrak 21 is seen departing the station. I saw he still didn't have the signal and then I saw 22's lights and I knew that this was the luck of the Irish right here. I did a good job on this one.

CSX 2782 heads west through Morris running long hood forward. This engine came off of CSX J744 which does some switching here and it has a nice sounding Leslie S3L.
