Viewing Album:  Hide and Seek with LMIC
 
By:Gary Everhart
Dates:2/27/2012 - 2/27/2012
Album Info:Always running behind a fence row or screen of trees are the Lake Michigan and Indiana RR Company switchers that do the tedious shuffling of the cars around Burns Harbor steel mills. They are more timid to be in the open than deer or rabbits! I can only catch glimpses of them while they scurry along the hedgerow before ducking into a siding deeper into the steel mill yard.
