Colorado’s Minturn Yard is bustling with new Southern Pacific GE AC4400CWs on September 5, 1995. To the right on the main line, a helper set trailed by No. 143 returns from pushing tonnage up the 3% grades east (south) of town, while SP No. 280 leads three others on the point of an eastbound coal load waiting for the helpers to pass so it can head east to add two sets of manned helpers to the heavy train. Another AC4400CW helper set led by No. 276 (not in the picture yet) will be cut into the 105-car train 58 cars back, while a second helper set led by No. 200 will be cut in 15-cars from the rear. Ten scarlet and gray AC4400CWs and three crews will soon muscle the hulking train up to the top of Tennessee Pass. Today, Minturn Yard is empty, rusting and sad…

Dodge Charger R/T

Production period 1968/1970.

Dodge Chargers are a great choice for a muscle car restoration project.

Aside from the base 318ci V8, the 383ci motor was offered in both two or four-barrel versions, producing 290 and 330 horsepower, respectively.

On the top of the engine option list was the 375 horsepower 440 Magnum and the legendary 426 Hemi.

Another panning shot.

Tiny little open freshwater muscle on the shore of Lake Hartwell. This little guy is about the size of a dime.

A little detail from a 2021 C8 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray - not much in common to its classic forbears! A modern classic....maybe?

Train home from the City

As my kayak inadvertantly drifted toward the hangout of the notorious Laughing Gulls gang on Armand Bayou, they sent out an enforcer to suggest an alternate route.

The brain is a muscle,

and I am a kind of

body-builder.

This is one of my teammates. The lighting was the same as my back photo.

The Pontiac GTO, often considered the first true muscle car, became an instant legend with its powerful V8 engine and bold design. With its iconic “GTO” badge, the car represented a new era of performance and set the stage for the muscle car movement.

 

Fun Fact: The GTO stands for “Gran Turismo Omologato,” a nod to its heritage as a high-performance homologation model.

Hard to get more classic than a Ford Mustang.

Great Northern SD45 #400, "Hustle Muscle" leads the North Shore Scenic Railroad's weekly "Two Harbors Turn".

 

This particular excursion (as of 2025) operates once a week on Thursdays, while the "Duluth Zephyr" and "Pizza Express" run Fridays-Sundays.

 

GN 400 is paired with former Northern Pacific 245, which was also fired up and humming along on this diesel double-header. Naturally, a short chase was in order.

 

Seeing GN 400 run is like seeing an old friend, as it was 10 years ago it operated in Osceola, WI while on lease to MTM, where I volunteered at the time. The locomotive had an eventful decade since, getting a new 20-645 engine and being re-homed to Duluth. It doesn't operated much, but has seen regular service on most of LSRM's trains in June and now July.

 

Here the train departs the museum as it traditionally does by shoving out of the depot and onto the NSSR mainline.
