Eastbound grain loads traverse the split mainline around the small town of Watson, Minnesota along the old Milwaukee Road mainline to the west coast. Watson sits up on the hills above the Chippewa River valley just west of Montevideo. Seeing that the railroad planned to bypass their town during its construction, the people of Watson successfully negotiated to have the railroad locate one of the main tracks up onto the hill to serve them. Since the line through the valley didn't require the steep grades of the line into town, most traffic used this main even in Milwaukee Road days. Not surprisingly, it's also the one that the TC&W keeps in service today, although part of the other main through Watson remains and is frequently used to store cars.

Bonjour à tous, en ce glacial samedi matin de fin février, la BB 7364 était en tête du MA100 Hourcade Sibelin composé d'une rame Ambrogio et d'une rame de citernes juste derrière. Le train est vu à Belberaud (31).
Pour la petite histoire c'était la BB 26063 qui devait être sur ce train mais la photo est quand même sympathique.
After more than 24 hours of dense fog across the region, early morning light shines on an eastbound manifest as it accelerates from a stop in downtown Fremont, NE. The fog caused our family to cancel a planned outing to Lincoln the previous evening, but the railroad has kept safely moving the entire time. Evidence: these two locomotives were trailing on a westbound train that I saw at this same spot the previous morning (www.flickr.com/photos/revbry/50803981757/). They must've made a quick turnaround at North Platte overnight. Most Americans probably pay little mind to how amazing it is that this vital transportation network keeps moving reliably 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with little interruption. Thank you, railroaders!
Aan het einde van de dag kregen we dan toch nog een leuke topper voor de lens. Én wel Veolia die met twee locs van de serie 189 in dubbeltractie over de Betuweroute passeerden ter hoogte van Herwijnen met de graantrein van Bottrop naar Botlek, 12 februari 2010.

Fin de journée pour ce train de ballast lors de la construction de la LGV Méditerranée qui s'en retourne à la base travaux de Cheval Blanc.

What would unfortunately be the end of the chase of this train. CSX 7784 had been approaching us rather slowly and we had heard an emergency application as it approached. For the rest of the afternoon, the crew and the diesel doctor would attempt to fix the constant PCS opening and no flow on the train with seemingly no success. Eventually, the crew would end up turning the first 4 motors to have a UP leader hoping it would fix the issue.
In La Grange, Kentucky the railroad runs the entire length of Main Street. Thirty trains a day pass through this city that's 40 miles north of Louisville.
