Remarks & Notes

Fall color is in full tilt on top of Snoqualmie Pass in Washington state as MILW 177 exits Snoqualmie Tunnel after making its eastbound climb up from Cedar Falls, WA. The train will continue to Othello, WA for a crew change on its way to St. Paul and Chicago from Tacoma. This rainy day will soon give way to multiple feet of snow. The URTX reefer (lettered for Soo Line) was used as a storage shed.
