CSX westbound empty coal led by GP30 Slug 2223 crosses the Potomac River at Harper's Ferry, WV. 10/16/1994. Harper's Ferry is a favorite spot for me. There are plenty of trains (CSX & Amtrak), two rivers, some beautiful rock scenery and a historic town.

The Chicagoan departs CUT on a cold, snowy, day. Leading the train are E7s 4032 + 4028, plus 1 more. Cleveland, OH, 3/1966.

The eastbound Southwest Chief, #4. led by class SDP40F 500 + 1 rolls through a cut at Argyle, IA in April, 1977. The next stop is Fort Madison (actually Shopton), IA on the Mississippi River.

The eastbound Nebraska Zephyr pauses in Mt. Pleasant, IA to load passengers and work the mail. 8/1959. By this time in my life, my grandfather lived in Mount Pleasant and I would travel, by train, from Houston for a visit after baseball season was over. This shot is one of those summer pictures I took that makes my memories of Mount Pleasant so good.
