Viewing Album:  Canadian Pacific ex-MILW Mainline 2010-2012
 
By:Andre Wehrle
Dates:2/7/2010 - 12/31/2012
Album Info:More CP action on their Chicago to Twin Cities mainline, focused near the east end from Watertown to Milwaukee. This is one of the busier rail lines in Wisconsin and the only one with regular Amtrak service. Some days it seems like all you see is CP's red, widecab GEs, but patience and luck will yield a wide variety of classic and colorful diesel power.

Title:  CITX 3065
Description:  These silver-and-green wanderers have changed reporting marks several times over the last few years. CP has brought some of the CITX units into service in former DME/ICE territory, so they sometimes show up on the mainline as run-through power.
