Brown Season Blues
No, I wouldn't consider this a brown season shot. But at the current time of this posting, Illinois has plunged into stick season. Also, digging back into the archives reveals just how depressing Class 1 PSR railroading really is. So with that in mind and the fact I missed ETTS Tuesday, I present you with this offering.
It was going to be a bitterly cold morning in the Upper Midwest. But with promise of blue skies and blue power, I ventured out with Erik and Matt in search of H20. What at first was shaping up to be a single shot chase near La Crosse, ended up being a short chase much further up river between Frontenac and Lakeview. Up ahead, 281 was having serious issues with the cold. As such, H20 wasn't set free until the afternoon. A frustrating day to say the least. I didn't know it at the time, but this would be the last Blue and Gold I would see running.
