First Sighting |
| Description: |
After we found that the train was not yet at Granite Falls, we continued South until we ran into him here at Cottonwood. The 8376 is also sporting a nice new Air Blast K5LA as a bonus! |

Tales of the past |
| Description: |
The L-TWI669 slams the diamond at Granite Falls. The Milwaukee Road was the owner of the tracks to the right, and their searchlight signals still stand today to guard this interlocking. The line is now owned by the TC&W and about 10 minutes before this guy showed up the TC&W 3516 led a train over the diamond, so yes, It is still very much in use. |

| Description: |
What a first day of summer! A consist like this is something that I wouldn't have drempt about in my wildest dreams in todays age, but due to an ethonal train off the CSX (and the fact that they put a Dash 2 as power) earlier in the day, the local was given that power to bring back to Wilmar. Oh, and the locals power isn't bad either! |

| Description: |
An engine that is running out of time on all railroads, the SD40-2. But today I was treated to this rebuilt SD40 in great paint, plus a BN Green SD40-2 along with a repainted and rebuilt BNSF SD45-2(now an SD40-2). Hopefully these types of things can continue to be found. |

Just about the last train I would look for in terms of CSX power, but the Soup Nuts rolls up to Osborne on Main 1 with the CSXT 8801 leading 115 cars bound for the receiving yard at Northtown. Missed too much football for this, but you got to do what you got to do. |

Another SD40-2 appears for this foamer to shoot, this time the 8805. Later on I would shoot the 8804 at the Barr facilities, but I wont post that because of the yellow tubes obstructing the engines a bit. So I shot the 8803,8804, and 8805 in a span of less than 24 hours! Not bad! |

NREX 9926 |
| Description: |
Unloaded from the UP for quite some time, the 9926 still soldiered on with the BNSF at this time. Now, its almost certain to be on lease with CP. After that, this unit may very well be put to bed. |
