Once a common sight |
| Description: |
Only missing the second main and SOO LIne power, this was once a daily occurance. Now adays you are only assured the WC transfer on these rails, but due to repairs on the Saint Paul sub, the "SOO" returns to its once busy line. |

Cha cha cha changes... |
| Description: |
Only a few more times will I be able to see Ed fly by on the transfer. As the day ends, Ed Pattens career will also soon end, after many many years on the Rock Island and company. |

As the sun rises and the moon hangs overhead, WC 7519 idles back on its old stomping grounds. Not a better treat to catch I believe... |
