Guess the railroad. Give up? This is Southern Pacific train 2EUCHQ 21, from Eugene, OR to Chicago, IL. The locomotives are Conrail, likely leased by SP or used to pay back miles CR might have leased from SP at one time. The railroad on which this train is running is BNSF, as this line hosted SP trains out of KC to Chicago back in the 1990s as part of a trackage rights agreement. Sometimes it can be confusing.
