Description: Check out our website at DivergingClearProductions.com The Recordings Of Jim Adams, Volume 5 - Cab Riding Illinois Central Steam Jim Adams was an employee in the shops of the Illinois Central Railroad at Centralia, Illinois. He used his unparalleled access as a railroad insider to document the last days of the steam locomotives he loved, taking his reel-to-reel tape recorder trackside and into the cabs of locomotives. In this volume, we present recordings made in the cabs of two Illinois Central steam locomotives: 0-8-0 #3511 and 2-8-2 #1536. The switcher was recorded while switching in Centralia, Illinois, while the Mikado was taking a local freight down the now-abandoned branch line from Carbondale to Thebes, Illinois. It’s railroading as it was, just before complete dieselization.
