On my way home out of Randolph St. Station on the 8:15 South Shore last night, we made our stop at Van Buren St. and to my surprise a CP Chop nosed Gp-9 and three passenger cars went past the station. The first was a smoothside baggage car, next looked like a converted box car into some kind of track inspection car and last was another passenger car with no observation end but a sheet of glass, inside I noticed about 4 people with computers and other machines. My question is What was this doing this far into Chicago? also, I thought this line was Metra /CNIC ?
