Ford Hauler

Back when the Ford Line was still in use, CP would occasionally bring equipment to higher ground during the Spring thaw to avoid the rising Mississippi River which has the potential to flood St. Paul Yard. Here five engines bring a handful of gons up to the Ford Yard for storage. I remember this bridge used to really creak and grone when a train passed over head.
