Continuing the climb
Title:  Continuing the climb
Description:  487 continues its long climb upgrade as it comes up to Stockton, MN. The only other thing I could have asked for to make this shot better would be to have a blue leader, but hey, I like lease units, so no problem!

Mississippi Valley
Title:  Mississippi Valley
Description:  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!
