CP 291 rumbles past the Winona mile board on the last day of March. An AC44 thats obviously seen better days and a CEFX blue bird are in charge of this train.

Knowing this train was coming, I ventured to the depot to see what this train would have, and boy was I happy when it rounded the curve! Soo 6025 and Soo 6024 lead 291 through Winona on a beautifu... (more)

A lone CSX Gevo is in charge of a CSXT hopper train as it rolls onto single track at Winona Junction. This was the third of 3 eastbound trains.

Little did I expect to shoot a YN3 SD60I leading a train on the River this morning! CSXT 8743 heads coke loads for the Indiana Railroad through Winona at 07:45.

This made up for me missing a 498 with Soo 6060 and 6039 earlier in that day. Train 581-31 has a bandit GP40 leading on milwaukee rails.

Late on a Thursday evening, 499 heads west through Winona with just a lone AC44 for power today.

Trying out a different location, I catch 290 with a stellar SD40-2/SD60M/SD60 combo!

The second of 3 westbound trains is 271, running with only the lead unit online. Here 171 is winding out of Winona with Tower CK visible in the background.

Two generic CP SD40-2's and ICE 6406 drag 636 onto the River Sub at Tower CK, following right behind 486-26.

After getting the signal at CK, IC&E 6449, DM&E 6370, and a CITX SD40-2 twist off the DM&E connection towards the River Sub.

Almost impossible to do! Catch a train in town, with good light, at 18:45. Soo 6038 pops into a sunny patch for only a second, as he guides train 281 up the River.

An odd afternoon run allows me to catch G77 run Wall Street after school. Great way to start a spring break, a lone Soo GP38-2 sways up Wall Street, done with a weeks work.

With the all clear at Winona Junction, BNSF 4580 along with 2 other motors, storm towards single track with hot intermodal from Portland.

Soo 6026, 6036, 6039, 6057, and 4431 glimmer in a pocket of Sunlight as they approach bass camp. It was getting a bit tricky finding places with sun this late in the day, but boy was it worth it!

With an eastbound all tucked away in the siding at Weaver, Soo 6026, 6036, 6039, 6057, and 4431 motor west on 283.
