I have long wanted to catch the Monticello Local passing the "Rogers" station sign in the town of the same name. On this gorgeous early April afternoon, my wish came true. |

Goodbye Rogers |
Description: |
Switching completed for the week, the Monticello Local's crew takes the train south on a stunning, lovely, soul-feeding April afternoon. (Yes, spring fever has left me in a rapture this year. :-) ) |

Departing Union Yard |
Description: |
An eastbound BNSF transfer (to CP I think?) heads out of Union Yard after being stopped by the dispatcher. I hated having to shoot into the sun, but the light settings on my Olympus Accura helped some. |

Cascade Greens |

Third and fourth of a six unit lashup on a eastbound freight stopped for a red signal. Nice to still see Cascade Green over twenty years after the Burlington Northern became BNSF. |

First Catch Of 2019 |
Description: |
My first catch of 2019 was this eastbound freight stopped for a red signal in Long Lake. The catch was easy as pie, because the hogger had parked this impressive lashup right across from my apartment complex. |

Golden Oldies |
Description: |
My visit to Willmar netted these four golden oldies parked near the sand tower. I especially like the 2589 because it retains the classic GP30 look. |

At present, stored units reach all the way up to the old Soo Line main at Northtown. Here are some of the golden oldies parked here. Sure hope these babies will return to duty. |
