This program was filmed in 2003, four years after the Illinois Central Railroad was acquired by Canadian National. At the time C.N. was making its presence known, but there was plenty of the Illinois Central left. Most of the video was shot over the course of three weeks in February.
This program covers the Centralia District between Centralia and Wetaug, Illinois, and every town between the two is visited. This was the era before C.N. switched to directional running with southbound traffic taking the Bluford District and northbounds on the Centralia.
This program was originally released in late 2003 on VHS, and is the oldest program in our catalog.
