Whoa! How is it possible that we're already adding August TWPs? Where has this year gone? Anyways, time to post what you got when you got it!

When did you shoot these? I recently saw a rare solid set near Sidney, Nebraska. Disappearing fast, these engines are...

NOT big MACS, Alan - they're babies. UP has no more 6000 HP BIG MACS - dumped 'em all. 307 babies on the roster. CP still has 4 hanging around nort of da border.
I know where he shot those - but if I told ya I'd hafta kill ya - train should be mSSPR - daily from Twin Cities to Proviso.
3 baby Macs on one train, much to the dismay of crews, not uncommon right now. As to WHEN - LOOK AT EXIF DATA.

Or even at Fuzzy

Ed-

That photo of the SD90MACs looks like it was taken in Rochelle. Looks like an westbound- so it's definately not the MSSPR. We have gotten an influx of 90MACs down here in TX too- pretty popular power on the KC and North Platte trains bound for Englewood.

My contribution- a farewell to the old CBQ code line and signals in northern ILL-

Possible - but if that's US 45 above - then its rr e/b just south of Butler - the tower is lettered for Penzey's Spices - former Falk warehouse directly south of the now- out-of-production Capitol Dr. Harley-Davidson plant.

CP 9604 - location, location, location? (City is sufficient)
