Riverdale Illinois

An ex-Conrail GP15-1 and an ex-Chessie System (C&O) GP15T, along with a Chessie System (B&O) caboose, idle next to the tower on the west end of CSX's Barr Yard in Riverdale, Illinois.
And then there's another engine apparently coupled to the other end of the caboose. What is this equipment being used for?
 
I think this is local power, which was lined up with some road power and the freight cars it dragged into town.
