Looking North
Title:  Looking North
Description:  A panoramic shot of the UP/CP/PGR line in Rosemount with PGR 38 in the foreground. Green signal was for the northbound UP 3985. The tank car in the center is parked on a piece of track that once formed part of a connection to the long-gone Chicago Great Western mainline in Roseport but now only has a fragment in Rosemount surviving as a spur.
