Snowy Departure
The Empire Builder departs Saint Paul while fighting snow all the way through Minnesota. It's a healthy test for the trio of Siemens ALC-42s. Today's train is following the Borealis down the Mississippi River and over Wisconsin to Chicago. Late arriving equipment to Seattle several days prior ultimately delayed this edition of the Empire Builder, but it is hanging tough in the weather.
