Empire Builder Deja Vu |
| Description: |
24 hours to the minute after Amtrak's train #8 (6/18/16 version) blasted through town, the 6/19/16 edition makes an appearance. Quite a rush to be standing trackside when the Empire Builder comes through at speed. |

CP 8567 |
| Description: |
An eastbound loaded coal train (2nd unit DPU halfway back) takes the siding at Portage west. Crew has to set out a bad-order car on the rear of the train - the rotating coupler is stuck in the rotated position. Wish I would have kept my camera out as FRED was hanging on for dear life! |

For reasons unknown to me, this EB freight came to a complete stop just shy of Industrial road in Portage prior to proceeding. There did not seem to be anything wrong with the crossing signals... |

Now, I KNOW I've seen this train before - 3rd time in three hours over 25 miles. For the sake of the crew, I hope they make better time as they continue their westward journey! |
