Slippery When Wet
Tuesday, July 16, 2019 was a mixed bag of weather for the 4014's trip segment between Boone and Mason City, Iowa. Sunny and humid in the morning and some pretty heavy rain squalls in the early afternoon. Here, in a driving downpour, 4014 is hitting the home signal at Clear Lake Jct and about to cross the Iowa Traction on the way into the Mason City. Note that the "Big Boy" moniker has been washed off the smoke box front.
