A photograph that is a scene right out of 1972. The "New"
railroad Illinois Central Gulf, operates a caboose hop with
a former Gulf, Mobile & Ohio Railroad Alco RS 1 diesel
locomotive acquired through merger, and a former and very
recently repainted Illinois Central Railroad steel side door
cupola caboose complete with ICG markings.
