CPKC 148 at Grey Cloud Dunes
CPKC 148 gets a route through Grey Cloud Dunes SNA on the BNSF St. Paul Subdivision after Amtrak's Borealis exited the Twin Cities. I like that there is traffic ready to go after the Borealis consistently, so that I can get a bonus train somewhere whether it's the BNSF or CPKC. It had been a while since I had visited Grey Cloud Dunes. There is a large residential development encroaching on my peace and serenity here, so I have been hesitant on revisiting since the earthmoving and construction started. CPKC 148 was a good motivator to hustle down the hill to this spot and catch it passing the 4167 intermediate signal.
