The old and the new
Title:  The old and the new
Description:  Steve Sandberg brings the fall color trip back into Wayzata after a trip to Willmar on the BNSF Wayzata sub. Before they made a brief station stop to disembark passengers that had boarded at Wayzata, Steve Sandberg and company wheeled their famous charge past a stopped eastbound freight on the Wayzata siding.

Next Stop Willmar
Title:  Next Stop Willmar
Description:  The Friends of the 261's fall color jaunt to Willmar heads for Maple Plain and all points west to Willmar as the train thunders west paralell to US Highway 12. Note the bold souls in the upper right corner who actually pulled off the highway illegally! I think a State Trooper might not have granted those ralilfans a pass if a trooper happened along, train or no train. Some railfans catch all the breaks.
