| Description: |
After 60N, it was time to get down to Rochester to finally see Nick at work. They were heading downtown today to pick up some storage cars, a move that isnt made very often. So, we definitely wanted to make sure we saw that. We met up with two other railfans there and they accompanied us as be began our chase. The crew was at lunch when we arrived into Rochester. But, as soon as they got back, they immediately fired the engine up and went toward downtown to grab their cars. The train passes an old concrete grain elevator at 8th Street. |

We had gotten word that a TP&W eastbound had departed Hoosier Lift bound for Logansport with CFE 3316, a SD40T-2 "tunnel motor" on the front. So we grabbed Nick one final time at CR 350N north of Rochester, and the four of us following made our way south to Logansport, then west from there on US 24. |

| Description: |
And just like that, the much anticipated trip of the year was finally here. I am an assistant director with our churchs youth group, and this past summer, I was invited to attend the Higher Things Conference at Concordia University Nebraska in Seward, NE as a chaperone for our youth group. For all of those who are unaware, Higher Things is a set of 3 conferences held every year bringing LCMS Lutheran Youth from all across the US to learn, worship, and grow in Christs Word and Sacraments. Originally, I was supposed to drive our youth group out there in a rental van. But, that later became an impossible option. So, I got the greenlight to go out there myself and meet them. And you cant travel that far without getting some trains here and there! Originally, I was just going to watch trains heading back home from the conference. But, thanks to hernia surgery in June, I was on an extended leave from work that would be coming to an end once I got home from the conference, so I was able to plug in some days of train watching before the conference as well. Early (about 4 AM early) in the morning on the Fourth of July, I set out and began my 15 day journey to Seward and back. I had three days of trains before the conference and another seven afterwards to watch trains for the whole day, and I had plenty of stops in mind. The goal for the first few days was to follow the UP Overland Route, then after the conference to stay solely on the ex-Burlington Ravenna, Creston, Ottumwa, and Mendota Subdivisions. With Rochelle as my overlay point on the first day, I knew I would have a little time to kill here and there grabbing some trains on my way west and north to the UP. Daylight began to break once I hit Rochester. So, I made a quick pitstop to photograph the Rochester and Erie GP15. All is quiet now, but they would be working later in the day in town. |
