Westbound at Bald Eagle |
Description: |
This was a lucky shot these many years later, as this is the only restored Soo Line GP30 left of 21, although a couple others survive. It is leading a train at Hwy 61 and about to cross the BNs Skally line. |

Side view of a great looking engine |
Description: |
I always have liked the Soos bold, bright paint scheme in comparison to so many drab, dark schemes of the day, and it looked particularly good on a GP30. The 700 is now part of the collection of the Lake Superior Transportaion Museum and has been fully restored. |

Soo/Milwaukee merger |
Description: |
Turning around from the previous picture, you can kind of see where all the stability problems are near the bridge. After the line was rerouted to the Soo Line, this bridge was removed and there is no trace of the railroad left here. |

Soo Line on the Brooten line |
Description: |
Another shot as the train heads north and east. It appears the train is passing over a crossover switch, which I believe was a siding and possible connection with the Danbury Sub at Junction 278. |
