A good start
Title:  A good start
Description:  After Frank and I got into Waseca we headed over to Memorial Siding to see if anything was over there. Sure enough, this small train was getting ready to get into town with a nice set of power.

In the nick of time
Title:  In the nick of time
Description:  On the way back to Owatonna and home, we ran into 276 making its way east towards Dodge Center. With literally no light left, we made a quick turn off of 14 and had enough time to get one final shot of the day. Here 276 rumbles on towards Claremont with a mixed freight and three EMDs for power (DME 6368 trails).

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).

Waiting to go
Title:  Waiting to go
Description:  ICE 6451 waits to head out of Saint Paul Yard as its lite up by the Hump Towers Lights. I'm guessing this is a 170, based off of the power.

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!

CP 171
Title:  CP 171
Description:  One of the best trains on the River Sub rolls towards STP Yard with three SD40-2s for power. One of the best lashups of the day.
