JCB4010
CN 2039 @ Duluth, MN
Under an insane dramatic storm cloud sky and after getting a fresh R921 yard crew at CN’s Proctor Yard, train U7198107 begins to descend the 1.8-2% grade of Proctor Hill with a duo of CN C40-8s (2039/2020), a IC SD40-3 (6256) and an SD40T-3 (DMIR 402). Seen here coming around the corner in full dynamics at the other side of “Spirit Mountain” in Duluth, MN with their train of loaded BFT (Blast Furnace) from the Minntac Mine at Mountain Iron, MN bound for Lake Head at Duluth, MN bellow Dock 6. Taken: 10-7-22.
Mornings on the Missabe can be quite magical with whatever weather rolls off Lake Superior and eventually makes it way up the hill towards the Iron Range, this being one of those breathtaking moments.
