Western Railroad Discussion > Birthday ShootingDate: 10/01/11 13:16 Birthday Shooting Author: kodachrome9319 My soon-to-be wife told me take the oldest son out this morning to run errands to get stuff for his birthday party later on today. Once the errands were completed, I heard of a V CHCTAC departing Gavin Yard so we went to the Gassman Coulee trestle to check it out. Little did we both know, it was adorned with two SD60M's! After a quick chase out to Berthold, ND on the way back I heard the MP 20.1 detector go off, so we spun around and got a V PTLLPC at Des Lacs.
He and I both had fun, I believe I'm starting to corrupt him into liking trains! *evil laugh*..... 1) BNSF 8190 and 8153 lead 6778 feet of racks and stacks over the Gassman Coulee Trestle: 2) With the camera tripod mounted and using a cable release in the front passenger seat, we pace the SD60M duo at 27MPH before they enter the siding at East Berthold: 3) BNSF 1122 East leads the V PTLLPC through Des Lacs, ND: Enjoy!

Glad you got time for your sons' birthday. Cheers! Date: 10/02/11 19:19 Re: Birthday Shooting Author: wlj619 Love the stacks in the mirror...
