Album Info:Part I of my 2007 vacation pictures. This year we drove 4500 miles from Chicago to Montana, then south through Idaho to Utah and then back to Chicago via Wyoming, Nebraska and Iowa. This album covers the first 2 days of the trip, mostly in Wisconsin and Minnesota. We unexpectedly stumbled upon the CP 2816 steam engine in Mpls

Title:  Eastbound CN freight splits the old shorty Soo Line signals
Description:  We didn't see many old signals along the ex-WC(Soo) route across Wisconsin. We came across these neat signals just before dark and were lucky enough to catch a train passing through. You can see new signal bases installed at this location so these guys are living on borrowed time

Eastbound freight on the Milwaukee Road
Title:  Eastbound freight on the Milwaukee Road
Description:  Check out the MILW codeline still standing at this location. We followed the ex-MILW line between Appleton, WI and Terry MT (500 miles or so) and this was the only train we saw! We didn't expect to see much on this line anyways. I was glad to be able to photograph at least 1 train out here.
