261 Close Up 2005 Fall Color Excursion
Here is a close up view of 261, her AMTRAK Genesis consort, and the rest of her train as they leave the CP/SOO behind and enter the BNSF at downtown St. Paul. Sorry that tree there blocks 261's pilot a bit. Was kind of shooting on adrenaline by this point in the day. It had been a long wait!

Mark Muraski	General	In response to your questions, it was a private excursion, a photo-special from what I've heard. I thought it was just supposed to be on the next day, but I guess it was all weekend. I just happened to be in the area on Friday and said "why not?" and gave it a little chase.	5/11/2008 11:14:08 PM
