Morning Catch |

After dropping my younger brother off at Bethel, I decided to do some work in the library for a class I has later in the day. While I worked on a paper I had railroadradio.net going and heard L517 call for the light at Bald Eagle.

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. |

The WC got into New Brighton pretty late today, around 1:00 PM. It was, however, interesting to see the BNSF ACe trailing. |
