Hazing Day, but superb power
Title:  Hazing Day, but superb power
Description:  While making my way along the line to try and find a good spot to get the WC, the Dresser Turn showed up behind me with an excellent lashup. The tail end of the train just cleared the crossing and diamond in the background, and the engineer really notched these units up!

G69
Title:  G69
Description:  Here we see G69 pulling up towards Goodview so it can cut off the cars and pick up the six hoppers on the right of this picture. These cars will later be handed off to the UP. I find it hard to believe, but this was my first encounter with Soo 4439!
