The Illinois Terminal Railroad started out as an electrified interurban railroad that served many parts of the state of Illinois. In 1970 they purchased 6 EMD SW1500âs for system-wide service. Their Flexicoil trucks made them suitable for road and yard switching duties. In this run we are offering two of them in the later paint scheme in which the road name is spelled out on the hood of the locomotive.
