Hanson Material Services 49-5601, Lockport, Illinois

<b>Rocks As Needed Etc.</b> On the afternoon of Tuesday, August 30, 2022, Hanson Material Service EMD SW 900 MSC 49-5601 had 4 empty hoppers
in tow as it headed towards the Route 7 bridge in Lockport, Illinois and the Bug Line interchange with Canadian National Railways. This short run operates for a business called Rocks Etc. on an as needed basis to supply stone. The veteran switcher was built in 9/1954 for Jacksonville Terminal (37) before later serving with Seaboard Coast Line (232) and ultimately finding this "retirement gig" in Illinois.
