Expectations Exceeded
Ever since shooting a train with Boeings here in 2017 (flic.kr/p/CzV3jf) I had thought it would be a cool shot to do over with an MRL Ace, or if I was lucky an SD40. Never did I imagine I would get a chance to shoot an SD45 here! It's tough, because Columbus offers a number of other neat shots that generally get all the attention. However, with the more scenic location slayed the day prior, I decided to see how this looked. While not earth shattering, I can now cross a pretty damn neat shot off my list. Train is seen here roaring out of Columbus, which has a Minnesota connection. Originally called Sheep Dip, and then Stillwater, due to the Northern Pacific already having a Stillwater, MN, the mail was getting delivered to all the wrong locations. It was then renamed Columbus, which it remains today.
