Everything is at a crawl today as frozen switches create headaches for everyone. I have taken plenty of photos from the bridge in this shot.

Air pressure problems slows this outbound train. A replacement MU cable will be needed before continuing. I guess -2 degrees will do this.

Kickin' up snow... finally.

Finally some snow!

A pair of pumpkins clear a switch before reversing into the T-yard. A switch is being looked at in the foreground.

Leaving Northtown.

Blasting past the old, stylish depot towards Alma, Wisconsin.

Frost covers prairie grass as this coal train pulls into Xcel Energy's plant.

Tinder dry leaves cling to trees for one of the last fall shots this year.

This locomotive typically lurks in the shadows, pushing and pulling ADM tankers and grain hoppers.

Seemingly untouched.

Here is this lil switcher up close. A little worse for wear since this photo http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=136480

Amtrak is lending power to tomorrow's excursion of the 261 down to Winona, MN.
