Over the bridge and down the Main
Title:  Over the bridge and down the Main
Description:  The five pack continues its treck towards New Ulm as it rolls over a bridge just outside of Mankato. We only had about a minute to spare before the train came rolling by. This is quite the spot for afternoon lighting.

Description:  One of two former CNW SD40-2s that the ICE owns was seen helping build a train just outside of the yard. I like how the ICE patched over the nose bell on this unit.

Rainbow power on 170
Title:  Rainbow power on 170
Description:  Todays 170 rated some very interesting power! Leading was a former BNSF SD40-2 followed by four other SD40-2s. What other class one still sports power like this on the main?
