Album Info:More CP action on their Chicago to Twin Cities mainline, focused near the east end from Watertown to Milwaukee. This is one of the busier rail lines in Wisconsin and the only one with regular Amtrak service. Some days it seems like all you see is CP's red, widecab GEs, but patience and luck will yield a wide variety of classic and colorful diesel power.

Awful backlighting, but how often do you get a standard cab EMD leading an intermodal?
Title:  Awful backlighting, but how often do you get a standard cab EMD leading an intermodal?
Description:  At least this was my thought at the time...soon, the short-lived train 182 would be routinely led by such power, and a reliable morning run into good light. Unfortunately, it wouldn't last through the end of the next year. This on the other hand is Train 199, which along with eastbound counterpart 198 is one of the hottest trains on the line.
