Caught a 811 coal train heading east over the Dunreith District this afternoon. Took a bunch of pictures, but only these are good enough. Called it a day at Dublin...
Here we catch the 811 pulling hard with 3 big motors, crawling along at around 25mph, so we headed on east in pursuit. We sneaked our way in behind the packaging company as you can see in the picture..!!! The guard let us...
--------
We raced as quick as we could to the west edge of Greenfield in hopes of catching it and we did.. As you can see I barely got the camera ready, but we caught all 3 engines in this, a GE and 2 EMD's.
--------
Storms chased us most of the way and you can see them building in the west. Here we catch 811 powering past the signal at CP-Dublin. No worries, we talked the manager at the Cargill plant into letting us take a few pictures from there since they weren't loading anything. So a rare shot indeed!
--------
At this point we called it a day as gas is just too expensive to waste!
