One for Todd
Todd R enjoyed a pair of green SD40-2s at Carlton this past weekend (July 15, 2017) as they handled the westbound Grand Rapids Local. A nice sight in 2017, for sure. Going back a few decades to April 1987 finds an all-rail ore train headed through Carlton with horsepower payback Soo Line (Milw) SD40-2 135 helping. The train is curving through the new control point of Chub Lake, added after BN removed the double track on the Lakes Sub west of Carlton in 1984. Interestingly, both BN SD40-2s were originally built as C&S units.
