At the time I took this photo, I think the only RS 27s still running in the US were here. Two were on this train. The trailing unit is seen here. |

All Alco |
| Description: |
In a few years, the GB&W would be taken over by Wisconsin Central, which itself would become part of CN. Meanwhile, the roster was all Alco. I wish I could have spent more time here seeing this interesting operation. For today, Im happy I was able to get #2 at the yard with a great power set. |
