Eastbound IAIS local rolling long-hood-forward through Grinnell, IA. The locomotive is the Newton Yard switcher and had been switching cars about an hour before. It's pulling a single hopper to an industry on the east side of town. The time is around 8:30 AM on a very foggy morning. |

High-Nose Stranger Up North |
| Description: |
High-nose Geeps are seldom seen in Minnesota. This one I discovered on a train hunt this morning, tucked-away at a grain co-op served by the Twin Cities & Western. I was quite surprised to see this type in service and so nicely maintained. This made the whole trip a great success. |
