All-CNW at Marshalltown w/ Dana Grefe and Lee Koehler

 

 

Marshalltown, 1/27/02

CNW 6811 and 6858 were on the point of MDMDM. 

 

Also at the sand towers was CNW 6847, looking a little "worse for wear."  The unit never moved that day.

 

Here is a shot of the all-CNW consist on the Des Moines-Marshalltown-Des Moines train still in the yard.

 

At State Center, the consist passes over the old Hwy 30 bridge on the west side of town, easily doing 50+ mph.

 

 

The two CNW's headed south at KC Jct. for Des Moines.  The train was way ahead of schedule today.

 

On the way to Des Moines, the two SD40-2's approach Hwy 210 just south of Cambridge.

 

A last shot of CNW 6811 at Cambridge before it passed under the bridge.  This was our last shot of the day.

 

 

Another 60 degree day in January!  Here's a photo from a brief stop at Short Line Yard.

 

 

LAST UPDATE -Two CNW's up front!  A trip with ISU RR Club.
