Austin Local
Title:  Austin Local
Description:  After shooting the UP local working Owatonna, the scanner started to report that a train cleared the detector just outside of Meriden. We knew that the Meriden detector was just outside of Owatonna, so we raced over to the nearest crossing to shoot what turned out to be the local to Austin. It was great to see a former Milwaukee Road unit leading.

Waiting for a crew
Title:  Waiting for a crew
Description:  Train 276 sits in Memorial Siding before getting a crew and following 636 out of town. You can just about always count on a train sitting here getting ready to go when you come down here. The last is former Milwaukee Road (DME 6368).

CP 271
Title:  CP 271
Description:  CP 271 comes through Saint Paul Park with a four pack of blue and yellow SD40-2s for power in perfect light. To make it even better, the units were front-back-front-back as well. Big thanks goes to Josh Dulak for the heads up on this one!
