  7. SDs at Bellingham Wa

    SDs at Bellingham Wa

    When someone asked in a thread for SD9s, I said to myself, too bad, I've never shot them. Then I remembered these two. I found them resting at the MILW enginehouse in Bellingham Wa August 9, 1972. That's 533 in the foreground and 532 in the back. The builder's plate on 532 said SD9 (Built Jan...

  8. A Gloomy Day on the Milwaukee Road

    A Gloomy Day on the Milwaukee Road

    Here's one for John Crosby. This is the Milwaukee Road's Sumas turn on August 22, 1979. It was raining a bit and that matched the mood of the crew. This was in the waning days of the Coast Extension. My notes say that it was taken in Huntingdon B.C. so they and I have crossed over from the Sumas...

    MILW passenger service

    Could it be? Nope, sorry all you Milwaukee Road fans. Just happened to be in the right spot at the right time and CP using the right engine. They pulled these private varnish cars out of the Amtrak depot and are wait for Amtrak 8 to arrive at the depot.

    Beverly Bridge (View West) 1978

    What a great country! We can afford giant public art out in the desert. Certainly better as art than to let those pesky bikers and hikers use it! Note about yesterday's bridge pix: I stand corrected, the bridge is not over the Skookumchuck River but over a county road. I guess when they...

    WC/ex Milwaukee Road Caboose

    Ex Milwaukee Road caboose in the siding at Marinette. Wisconsin Central was in the process or replacing track right before the CN merger and I think this caboose was used for tool storage.

    Milwaukee Road 630

    Here's the first Milwaukee Road photo I took. It was in Bellingham WA, May 19, 1962. SW1200 630 was excercizing trackage rights on the Great Northern main to Vancouver B.C.. They were less than half a mile away from their own rails that led up the hill to downtown Bellingham. I had accidently...
