57 years young....
CN 4028 and 9468 pause on the south end of the Dubuque yard for the conductor to get the switch before making a move on another cut of cars. It was neat to spend a few minutes listening to the 567 prime mover strut its stuff. According to the info I've found the engine was built in December of 1956.
I always figured those homes on top the bluff have to have a rather nice afternoon view of the rail yard. Oh yeah, and the Mississippi River, most of downtown Dubuque, East Dubuque, and three states too!
