    Cool picture Harold! That is a really good job [​IMG]
    On the south side of Milwaukee, on a spur that comes off of the CPRail CM(Chicago Milwaukee)line, there's a yellow E-9 with some passenger cars just sitting there. It's been there for a while, and I haven't got close enough to see what road it belongs to. But being that it's yellow, and on CP tracks, I think it may be an old Milwaukee Road loco.
    If I ever have the camera while I'm down there, I'll be sure to get a picture. Once again, great photos Harold!

    Great photo of the E's on the flyover at Frost. It is always good to see UP's business trains on the road. Hopefully, they will send one of these specials my way some time soon. Keep the great photos coming.

    Thanks Harold [​IMG] Stack trains do look impressive when most of the train is in the pic., especially around curves.

    I look forward to some more pics. [​IMG]

    That could be, I think the Milwaukee Road and UP ran some passenger trains together and Milwaukee Road painted some E-9's to match UP passenger cars.

    BTW - great shot sd75mac!
