Crossing Lyman Boulevard
Title:  Crossing Lyman Boulevard
Description:  The 20th Anniversary special to Glencoe crosses Lyman Boulevard. The driver on the red car on the right almost didn't make it, slamming on the brakes when finally it was noticed the gates were coming down and backing up a foot to get out of their way! Thank heavens nothing more happened than that. Would have been a crummy way to start the trip.

The TC&W Main At Dusk
Title:  The TC&W Main At Dusk
Description:  What a differene a tripod makes! It didn't hurt that I deliberately chose this location due to the light at right which came from the Walgreens in downtown Chan. If only the Glencoe Turn had arrived at the time it had three days earlier (around 8:30 P.M.) I just might have got a shot worthy of O. Winston Link.

Sun over the Old Milwaukee Road
Title:  Sun over the Old Milwaukee Road
Description:  I love photographing the sun as much as photographing trains and railway-related subjects. This picture combines my two photographic interests into one. The bridge in the distance carries Highway 5 over the old Milwaukee Road Benton Cutoff, which is now operated by regional railroad Twin Cities & Western.

Title:  "MILW 261 West" At Powers Blvd
Description:  "Milw 261 West" crosses Powers Blvd in grand style on a sunny, cool, and breezy Saturday afternoon on the second weekend in September. Many patrons were enjoying good eats on this trip, because the excursions run this weekend were dubbed the "Gourmet Express" due to the food-oriented nature of the trip. The track warrant was nevertheless issued to "MILW 261 West" when the Gourmet Express was at Tower E-14 in Minnetonka, the beginning of Twin Cities & Western-owned track.
