Evenings at Dafter
By summer 2001 WC GBSOA was a late afternoon/evening train through Trout Lake. That meant it was running out of the sun for the most part except where the track swung to a more north/south alignment neat Dafter. After riding roughly 300 miles a day at work I still had enough ambition to run the 40 miles over to Dafter in the evening if the sky was clear and the units were of interest. Late evening July 5, 2001 has GBSOA heading for a Soo yard meet with his westbound counterpart. 3027 and 588 roll along in the late day sun leading 57 cars.
