A pair of SD70MACs lead a BNSF coal train east on the CP at the Conoco Road crossing in La Crosse, WI. It says no train horn at the crossing, so I think he was blowing the horn at us.

UP Adams Turn at Tower CK heading east out of Winona, MN. Had a really nice engineer! You can see that from all the waves and the horn. :) He even mentioned on the radio how they have a fan club.

Wow, a catch of a lifetime...a KCS train came into Winona on the DME line and crosses over to CP here at Tower CK. There was an issue with the gates at that nearest crossing, so they were going pretty slow to make sure things were ok.

ICE heads east through Winona when some idiot kids decide it would be fun to try to play chicken. We tried telling them to get off the tracks, but they wouldn't listen. So I recorded them being stupid. Dumb!!

UP MWIAD Adams Turn heads east out of Winona at Tower CK. The engineer pulled up to the crossing too fast and had to wait for the conductor, J.J., and the new conductor to get to the crossing. This was J.J.'s last trip on the MWIAD. They had 39 loads, 9 empties, and were 2953 ft long.
