After the storm and rain |
| Description: |
After dropping my brother and sisters off at the homecoming game, I swung by New Brighton on my way home to see if anything was going on. Thankfully, just as I was coming up to the crossing I heard the power notch up and the WC started coming out of the yard. The sun was also coming out, and it made for some excellent contrast against the dark storm clouds in the background. |

Giving a Wave |

L506 rolls under Silver Lake road with James Humbert at the controls as he gives a nice friendly wave. After getting a shot of the train, I had only seconds to get a shot of him waving when I saw him leaning out of the cab. Given the time I had, I'm really happy how this shot turned out (and so is Humbert!)! |

Wow, simply WOW! A new addition to CNs roster, a former CNW C40-8, leads out of the yard at New Brighton on a fine August day. This helped to give me some energy after a hard day a work boost me up a bit before my Business Law class as well. This unit was also VERY clean too. I'm really looking forward to seeing many more of these at New Brighton on L506 in the future. |

Ahh, the beautiful valleys and scenery that come with the CP and DM&E lines! Here we see 487 climb up towards Stockton with the CITX 3091 leading the charge. Thankfully the sun cooperated enough to make this shot go as planned too! Where else in MN can you see a trio of SD40-2s running with in scenes like this? This is one of the many reasons why I love the DM&E! |

Hill Job |
| Description: |
As I'was coming down I35 into Duluth, I saw a loaded taconite train heading down grade towards the ore docks. So I made the quick decision to try and beat it to the docks. Thankfuqly, I made it in time, and was able to get this shot. Little did I know at the time, but I knew the engineer! The engineer is none other then John Tuttle who used to work out of New Brighton last year as a conductor. This was quite the colorful lashup too! |

Memorable Moment |
| Description: |
Every picture has a story behind it, and this one is no exception. As usual, after class I went and checked the lights at Victoria St and thankfully it was green. So I decided to head over to Lexington Industrial Park to take advantage of the snow that was coming down. It wasn't long before I heard a low ominous bass off in the distance, shortly after I heard the distinctive sound of a horn. After a few minutes I then heard the low bass get much louder, a sure sign L517 was at Cardigan West climbing up grade. It got louder and more rich as the power got closer, it sounded like an older EMD, and was music to my ears. However, I still didn't know what the power was until I saw the gates at Lexington Ave drop and the lead unit exposed itself. Seconds later I got the shot you see above. It just goes to show that patience is well worth it! |

Doing Track Speed |
| Description: |
After catching L516 at White Bear Lake, I decided to make a go for the High Bridge at Somerset. Traffic wasn't on my side for that, so I headed over to New Richmond to capture this shot. I'm sure happy I got this shot here as the two GEs came by at track speed. |

Rounding Foley Wye |
| Description: |
GTW 5849 brings the WC Transfer on Foley Wye as it heads towards the loop track so it can get into Northtown. I still can't get over how well that GT unit looked. |

Two nice looking CN SD70M-2s roll under Cleveland Ave with a lenghty L517 in tow. I love the flairs on these units. |

The colors of fall |
| Description: |
L517 comes into town with a great lashup against a nice backdrop too. I wish more lashups like this were more common. |

Like the old days |
| Description: |
Its almost like the old days on the Withrow Sub, three EMDs humming by on a freight train. However, as much as I'd like that to be the case, its really the HAT being detoured over the line. Still a cool sight though! |

Coming into town |
| Description: |
IC 1002 leads todays L517 into town with a/decent sized train trailing. This is one of my favorite places to shoot trains on the Withrow Sub. |
