I was just about to take Missy for her evening walk but stopped short when I heard air horns in the distance. I went back for my camera and then walked to the tracks to photograph the approaching northbound.
Both the Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern locomotives were formerly owned, and subsequently re-owned, by Canadian Pacific. DME 6087 is ex-CP 5411, née QNSL 215. DME 6368 is ex-HLCX 6368, ex-SOO 6368, née MILW 207:2.
Not long after Missy and I got home from our walk I could once again hear air horns from afar. This time it was a southbound which I decided to intercept at River Road.
Those two locomotives looked quite familiar. They were both on the previous day's train 247.
What a colourful consist! Thanks for sharing it.
