Candy Apple Soo in Waseca!
Title:  Candy Apple Soo in Waseca!
Description:  Ever since the buyout of DM&E by CP, I've been waiting to see Soo Line power like this and I finally caught one of their locomotives working a local outside the American Legion (where the crew was most likely grabbing dinner). Sadly, I only had my cellphone camera to use so the quality isn't the best, but I think this photo turned out better than most of my other cellphone camera photos.

Title:  Big Red
Description:  Growing up in Kenosha, Wisconsin in the early 90s, around the time CP Rail was starting to have more of a presence on the old Soo Line, I remember seeing the dual flags paint scheme as a kid and referring to it as "big red". Ah I miss my childhood.
