Union Pacific GP-15-1L Y559 sits in the three track yard along Main Street with a short train of gondolas and tank cars for local industries along the McHenry branchline. Looks like this unit has spent some time in Chicago...

Yep, those two 12oz cans of coke were mine, as was the double order of salsa (and chips). They have excellent chips and salsa, and on Saturdays, three tacos & coke are just $3.75.
