Hearing the thunderous chant of a 645 from the car, I hop out to find the NS of all people pitching in to the spartan cab parade. These 61XX's are by far my favorite NS SD40-2's. |

ICE 6211 |
Description: |
940 trotts through town blowing loud enough to wake the dead. This would be my last shot of the train, but not my last look. I stood next to videographer Mike Savona (C-Vision member) as they topped the hill just East of Algona, which might quite possibly be my last look at the IC&E. |

I was going to just drive home as the cloud cover was not going to go away, but as I turned off on 22 the sun came out for a bit and intrigued me enough to go try a shot here at Mankato. I found this spot by accident, and although I didnt think the sun would last I waited just because. As the dyno's roared to life and the 6301 wrapped around the corner the sun came out and made me settle for this makeshift shot. Had I known the sun would pop out just in time I would have done alot better, but oh well... |
