C40-8 Trio
Title:  C40-8 Trio
Description:  A trio of C40-8s rest at New Brighton before heading out of town on L516. 517 came into town with just two C40-8s, but later in the day the Chippewa Falls Job came in with the 2125 making for this interesting lashup. This photo is stock, nothing at all has been edited on it either.
