Title:  By request
Description:  Always cool to get a request for photos. After posting a shot last week from ICGs old Sparta branch, I got a request for more along that line as they are quite rare. Turns out they are quite rare in my collection as well. This is the only one I could come up with. Not really one of my favorites, but it is one of the few I have with a GP8 on the point. This one is at North Jct. in Sparta.

ICG 7963
Title:  ICG 7963
Description:  You could pretty much count on ICG to provide a fair amount of variety back in the day. This train rolled by the weather-beaten remains of the old passenger depot in Freeburg, IL with five units -- one GP8, one GP10, one GP11 (in the short-lived all orange paint scheme), a GP30, and a GP35 still wearing GM&O number and colors. ICG was nothing if not colorful back then.
