Remarks & Notes 
CNW 883 leads an SD45 and CR SD40-2 south on train 406 out of Spooner towards Altoona, WI. It's a beautiful fall day and the SD40 represents one of the early CNW orders which did not have the traditional gong bell on the nose. A little known secret is that CNW did use them on this order, but they were tucked under the frame where the traditional bell normally resided. It is barely visible above the rear brake cylinder on the lead truck.

Railroading in the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, basically anything but the 2000s.
