Back in 2007...the Rapid City, SD, to Huron, SD, manifest train is screaming out of Wolsey after setting out some cars for the BNSF. Huron is now only 14 miles to the east. The train has just crossed the BNSF Aberdeen Branch and one can see the distant signals for the diamond.
LTA42 rounds the classic curve at Dakota past the remains of a March snow storm. During the sand boom of the 2010s, LTA was quite healthy, running two trains a week and generally using three big motors. Car counts were still high with Bentonite traffic off the CP/RCPE. This interchange traffic originated from an agreement formed after CNW dumped the Alco Line and PRC onto the DME.
Little did we know at the time, change was just over the horizon. In 2017, UP and RCPE worked out a new agreement to interchange the Bentonite in Mankato, cutting into LTA's car counts. But even after the loss of the Bentonite, frac sand still kept enough traffic moving to warrant two trains. But this too would bottom out around 2018. The final nail in the coffin was UP's PSR plan and their extreme cost cutting initiatives. Thus, sometime in late 2019/early 2020, UP scaled back LTA to a once-a-week run, using a single SD and the Winona Job's geep.

Led by Iowa, Chicago & Eastern EMD SD40-2 No. 6432, a Dakota, Minnesota & Eastern freight is westbound at Dakota Junction, Nebraska, on the afternoon of July 14, 2008.
A shot I got near Red Wing some years ago when I was travelling the area for work. I know getting a four pack of the B/Y's was pretty exciting at the time.
Another old memory from my Minnesota travels. These sure topped faded red GEVOs from a railfan perspective.
The Watertown Patrol (G64) works the Watertown yard, as an eastbound ethanol train hammers the UP's Clyman Sub diamond on this chilly winter afternoon.
A former Milwaukee Road SD40-2 leads 3 other Deuces across the Mason City Sub with a loaded unit grain train. These trains were referred to as "feeder trains" as the grains were destined for feed mills in Arkansas where it would be made into feed for the burgeoning poultry growing industry. The trains would be interchanged to the KCS at their namesake city.

Diese ELNA -Typen wurden zwischen 1922 und 1946 gebaut, Die ELNA 6, von denen hier ein Exemplar beheimatet ist, gehört zu den schwersten Lokomotiven des ELNA-Programms und ist für den Strecken- und schweren Rangierdienst geeignet.

A nice EMD pair consist of SOO 6038 and DME 6051, bring 243\'s freight past the London International Airport.
Thanks to 50 Mission Cap, I've gone down a bit of a 243 rabbit hole tonight. Over 10 years ago, 243 was a Toronto to Bensenville priority manifest train. Toronto would dispatch this train with whatever power was available, so it wasn't uncommon to see colourful EMD lashups on 243.
A good memory from west of Waseca 10+ years ago. I miss the days when I traveled the state for work, and could arrange those travels based on sun angles and the path the ROW followed. Good times indeed.
Am 17.05.2025 und 18.05.2025 fand in Hanau das Lokschuppenfest statt. Eine der Gastlokomotiven war die 184 DME (Henschel 25657/1946) des Eisenbahnmuseums Darmstadt-Kranichstein. Die Lokomotive wurde an die Farge-Vegesacker Eisenbahn AG geliefert und bekam die Nummer 203. 1965 ging die Lok an die Eisenbahn Bremen-Thedinghausen und wurde dort nach einiger Zeit in 184 umgezeichnet. Nach nur zwei Jahren bei der BTh wurde die Lokomotive an die Rinteln-Stadthagener Eisenbahn AG. 1972 ging die Lok schließlich an das Eisenbahnmuseum Darmstadt-Kranichstein. Hier ist die Lok am 17.05.2025 auf der Drehscheibe des Bw Hanau zu sehen.
Back in 2013 I was on my way home from northern Minnesota and was following google maps to Nahant, Iowa and I came across this.

Just about 10 years ago, the DME was still a thing and they loved to browse the used locomotive market. I must have been headed to Red Wing and decided to take the long way that evening. I think I wound up making a u-turn to chase this a ways. The geotag on this one is a best guess as my mind ain't what it used to be.
