BNSF 1940 West - South Shore, South Dakota
Today’s original plan was to drive up to Chatsworth and chase the Dakota and Iowa, then head back. While on the way there I was informed by Ross that BNSF’s Watertown Local would have a trio of BN locomotives on it. Despite the overcast conditions this was something we knew we couldn’t pass up. Thus, we broke off from the DAIR around 10:30 and hauled ass to a locale Ross wanted to check out at South Shore. Despite the hostile winds and freezing temperatures, this was definitely worth the near half-mile hike, even if I couldn’t feel my fingers for the next ten minutes.
