Update, the new delivery has started I have seen 4 or so units running through the area. The new units have a few changes to them most noteable would be the AAR standard control stand and the steerable trucks they had on the first order have gone away in favor of the Hi-AD trucks AKA roller blades. Here is a link to an in cab shot by CP's very own Jeff Terry http://www.railpictures.net/viewphoto.php?id=162669 |

I caught that same train up in Detroit Lakes. My father and I chased it to Glenwood, where it switched on to the main line. We were on a little trip up to the cabin (In Vergas, ½ mile from the CP) to put on storm windows and such, to prepare for the winter. I got a bunch of good shots; here are a couple: |

Nice shots Frederick, I particularly like the cows although the pacing shot is very good also. |

Thanks! Here's another shot: I have been trying to incorporate interesting elements into my shots recently. I used to just do 3/4 wedge shots when I had my old Coolpix 3200. |

I agree Matt. If I had shot photos like that even 10 years ago... Very nice work. You really took a liking to the Rebel XT. The avatar on RP.net is a great shot as well. |
