The image shows a black locomotive with the words "Illinois Central" written on the side in white letters. The locomotive is numbered 9543 and is located on a railway track. There are two other locomotives visible in the background, one red and one white. The red locomotive appears to be a freight train, while the white locomotive looks like a diesel locomotive. The sky is blue and there are a few clouds in the distance. The track is covered in gravel and there is a building on the right side of the image.
