Roaring 171
Title:  Roaring 171
Description:  While driving down to Homer, we saw headlights, and it just had to be a 171! So after a quick U turn and some fast driving, we got ahead of it. Here we see 171 being lead by ICE 6403 as it leans into the curve just outside of Homer siding. Thanks Josh for this unique spot!

Blue and Yellows Roaring by
Title:  Blue and Yellows Roaring by
Description:  Four blue and yellow DM&E and IC&E units roar over the flooded Crow River in Rockford as they lead an awesome looking 171 west towards Glenwood. The lead unit is the DME 6052 followed by DME 6097, ICE 6416, and ICE 6403. I never thought I would ever see something like this on the Paynesville Sub. Kudos to Todd R for showing me this spot.
