Big Hook at Green Island

The big hook saw a lot of use around Dubuque and Savanna toward the end of the Milwaukee Road's existence. Or, at least it seemed so to me because I saw them more than a few times. On this day, 283 leads the crane and MOW cars west and were headed somewhere on the line to Marion, IA.
