Amtrak #7
Very late (12+ hours) westbound Empire Builder powers up to track speed at Big Lake MN.
Derailments on the CP and BNSF caused a lot of problems including the delay of both Empire Builders. The track between Elk River and Big Lake takes a slight turn into the sun allowing for a rare shot of #7. There's also no baggage car and it seems the consist is backwards for some reason.
