A trio of GP49-2s at Seward, Alaska with crew conducting a roll bye inspection of the Seward to Anchorage passenger train, circa 1995.



A C&NW GP-7R soldiers on at Butler Yard in Milwaukee, circa 1994. This was from a group of former Rock Island units purchased by C&NW in 1981.



A Wisconsin Central (ex-Soo Line) snow plow waits for winter on a siding near Nestoria, Michigan, circa 1995. This plow still rode on arch bar trucks.




Best wishes, Dave
