Remarks & Notes |
IC power gets a 30mph pull on a unit train of empty hoppers rolling up out of the Mississippi valley at Rockdale in Dubuque. I've always loved shooting at this location dating back to the CC&P days and getting an IC locomotive leading over today's CN trackage was a treat, as these are heritage IC Iowa Div. rails. There are still 29 of these black IC SD70's roaming the CN as of this posting, only 3 wear CN dress. |
