Smoking near Marshall |
Description: |
An afternoon Dresser Turn comes up to Marshall St with a GP38-3 and two SD40-2s for power. Dean notches it up a bit as the power and 70 cars start to climb up grade. Usually I can't stand shooting into the sun, but I figured I could get a cool affect with the back-lighting and exhaust coming off these classic EMDs |

Grinding Up |
Description: |
While I waited for another train to come up the Saint Paul sub, I heard the rumble of an EMD 645. Sure enough moments later this great looking trio came into sight. What a great lashup to see in 2010! |
