Author: MILW86A

My friend Kevin and I went to the River on Friday. Not much action but did get a few trains.

1. CN Dubuque Switcher about to enter the tunnel at East Dubuque

2. BNSF HNTWBRC at Frentess Lake Road. This train got tied down at Burke Siding east of Savanna. 

3. Seasons Greetings at Bellevue Iowa with this CP 812 going south 

More to come.....

10. Back at Samoa(Sabula) again this time for CP 475 heading towards Dubuque and smoking like a MILW S3 

11. 2-472 power going to make a pickup at the north end. This has been the CP's PTC test power here in Iowa. 

After that we headed back to Marion and listened to the Iowa game....and the Hawks won! 12-0!! 

Thanks for looking. Comments and questions welcome.
