I had to pull the Way-Back Machine out of the closet and hit it a couple of times to get it working again, but I wanted to rework this old slide of the eastbound James Whitcomb Riley crossing Broad Street in Griffith, IN back in February of 1976. E9A 412 leads two more E's and a decent looking consist past the crossing guard, taking us back to the former glory of Griffith. The 412 once belonged to the Union Pacific, but now belongs to the ages. In other words, it was scrapped, but that sounds so cruel. I rescanned the old Ektachrome at a higher resolution and cleaned it up a bit, but sadly, I couldn't do anything about the lousy weather.
