Description: |
Frank and I decided to follow the UP line a little bit before getting on 169. Just outside of Kasota was this awesome looking pair of UP SD60s. It has been WAY too long since I've seen one of these working the rails. We would later get this train at LeSueur, Merriam and Shakopee. It was a very relaxing chase since 169 was good for 65, and the train could only go 49 mph. |

Cardigan West |
Description: |
After catching L517 roll into Cardigan at Cardigan East, I headed over to Victoria St to catch a Dresser Turn take the siding at Cardigan West. Power was CP 5902, Soo 6023, and Soo 6045. This train sure did take its time getting on the move today. |
