And then it snowed
Wanting to post something, I had in mind a cool shot I had from my Bessemer trip in 2013 of the train snaking around some curves in the snow. Looking through my set however, I realized this was the epitome of the trip; snow angrily falling to the earth amid the last gasp of the Bessemer and Lake Erie as we knew it. Can this really have been almost 9 years ago already?! This was a harrowing chase, but boy did it produce. There's a reason you don't see too many heavy snow shots in this area. The Bessemer as it had been was disappearing, the #902 would only hold on for about another year before it would be sent off to be repainted, never to return. Soon IC SD70's would arrive, ending one era and ushering in another. Amazingly, 3 orange units still remain in Pennsylvania and countless others across the CN system. This is one trip I will never forget.
