In a blurry leftover scene from my archives, Amtrak's northbound Lake Country Limited passes the Metra station at Grayslake, Illinois. Power on this occasion was a Genesis diesel and the usual Horizon coach and baggage car. Afterward, my brother traps a mouse between the rails.

In this video, a northbound Norfolk Southern freight train is captured running directly down the middle of Hickory Street in Warsaw, Indiana, creating a rare and eye-catching example of true street running railroading. The train is powered by a pair of General Electric C40-9W (Dash 9) locomotives, leading the consist through the heart of the city where rails share space with pavement, traffic markings, and nearby buildings. Scenes like this are uncommon in modern railroading and offer a fascinating glimpse into how historic rail routes continue to operate today. This section of track is part of the former New York Central (Big Four) route, which once ran from Goshen, Indiana to Louisville, Kentucky. While many street-running routes have been abandoned or rerouted over time, this line remains active, preserving a unique piece of railroad history. Whether you’re a railfan, a local history enthusiast, or just someone who enjoys unusual sights, this video showcases a moment you truly don’t see every day — a full-sized freight train rolling down a city street as if it were just another vehicle on the road.

📍 Location: Warsaw, Indiana

🚂 Railroad: Norfolk Southern

⚙️ Power: GE C40-9W locomotives

🛤 Historic Route: Former NYC (Big Four)
