Re: GLC ballast train on 29 July 2014.

Hi Don, from what I see the ballast is coming from the Bad Axe area as it rides in on HESR's 805 job. I haven't seen the SGVY hoppers go north out of Winnona yard yet.

Re: New Hoppers on HESR?

The old Peavey north elevator in Zilwaukee had two or so green high side hoppers in there last week. This would be the kind used for trash and such. I'm thinking cleaning out the silos.....and hoping to see grain trains here again but too early to tell.

Re: Accidents/Incidents while chasing trains

Why yes just last week I pulled off Wadsworth rd. to shoot HESR 800 job barely hit the shoulder of the road as I was coasting to a stop that snow just sucked the front of the Lincoln right in.....I did manage to get the shot though and a chuckle from the engineer too.

That looks to be the spur to Wabash (former Wicks) not used much at all may just have had some unforeseen issue buried in the snow.
