UP 1983 and UP 8520 |
| Description: |
I had a chance to snap a quick photograph of the “Welcome to Texas” and “Welcome to New Mexico” signs during one of my trips from the middle-of-nowhere Fort Bliss to the main cantonment area of the post on 28 Feb. '09. This spot along Hwy. 54 on the TX/NM border is Newman, Otero Co., NM. There just happened to be a long, high-speed container train passing by at the time. Train was headed southwest toward El Paso and had two locomotives, UP 1983 (WP heritage unit) and UP 8520. |

| Title: |
UP 6845 and UP 8482 |
| Description: |
An empty coal train idles away on the CN, former C&NW, siding at Stroebe, WI on 12 Aug. '17. Train was returning from Wisconsin Public Service's Pulliam Power Plant, a.k.a. J. P. Pulliam Generating Station, at Green Bay, WI and had three locomotives, UP 6845 and UP 8482 pulling and UP 6368 pushing. Stroebe is a railroad station in Fox Crossing, WI (formerly Town of Menasha, Winnebago Co., WI until 14 Apr. '16 (not Outagamie Co., where Stroebe was erroneously placed on this site)). The train rests amid the ongoing reconstruction of the Hwy. 41/Hwy. 441 (a.k.a. the Tri-County Expressway)/Hwy. 10 interchange (a.k.a. the Polish Connection). The overpass in the background is the connection from westbound Hwy. 10/Hwy. 441 (a.k.a. the Tri-County Expressway) to northbound Hwy. 41. The columns partially visible at left support the new, second bridge to carry eastbound traffic over Little Lake Butte des Morts. The columns partially visible at right support the original Roland Kampo Bridge (being extensively rebuilt) which will now only carry westbound traffic over Little Lake Butte des Morts. The interchange opened to traffic on 30 Nov. '75. When Hwy. 10 was reconstructed and relocated ca. '97, this interchange was not simultaneously reconstructed to form a full interchange, but the ongoing, extensive expansion and reconstruction will make it a full interchange as well as increase traffic capacity. |

UP 8641 and UP 5885 |
| Description: |
A pair of interesting visitors from out-of-town lead a CN through freight past the former Monroe St. grade crossing, as it slows to halt at the north end of the former SOO yard at Neenah, WI on 5 Jan. '19. The area between the tracks and Union St., from Main St. to Monroe St. used to be the yard. I don't know when the current yard (a few blocks to the south) was built, but a map from 1909 shows the yard here. |
