NS runs several auto stack trains down the mainline, high hoods are a common sight on those runsI think this was between 1993-1995. When CN and IC merged (damn that merger!) that was it for NS trains. Although in your post, they still use the main line around Chi-town, but don't use it in the southern part of Illinois. I think they're using UP trackage now in southern Illinois.
