Looking Into The Past, Present, and Future.

By: Roman Stelter


Description

Looking Into The Past, Present, and Future. - CPKC train 247 makes its way through the Wisconsin countryside, putting up a tough chase! The train has special locomotives in tow, including an ex SOO SD60, patched, but in its original paint; an LTEX GP15; and a CP SD40-3. The train is running on Milwaukee Road's Chicago to St. Paul double track mainline, which was eventually taken over by Soo Line, then CP, and now CPKC. The folks around here miss the orange, and black days of Wisconsin, a time in which I never really got to experience. This lashup is nostalgic of what I saw growing up, which was the rainbow days of Soo Line, CP, and once in a while patched MILW.
