The good one!
Title:  The good one!
Description:  And heres what I came for, but not FOUR! L-TWI602 heads up the grade wide open with a lashup that will probably never be recreated! The last unit was added at Aberdeen, for what reason I dont know. But a pair of Swooshes and two others, complete in the Front-Front-Back-Back formation, was just amazing!

4-Banger
Title:  4-Banger
Description:  What a way to go out, four SD40-2's organized like this. This was definately my goodbye to these warriors, notched up and flying through the small towns of South Dakota and Western Minnesota. These units will be missed...

Glowing
Title:  Glowing
Description:  Before the 602 showed up, all was quiet here, only a few trees and cattle to look at. But, the quietness wouldn't last, as four SD40-2's swing through the small Native American town of Waubay with engines notched up and horns blaring.

Swoosh!
Title:  Swoosh!
Description:  With the full moon rising, and the sun slowly setting, two Swoosh SD40-2's are shown gliding East on the former Milwaukee Road. Not to be fooled, there are two more SD40-2's doing their part as well.
