It has been a long time since I've been able to add a new roadname to my roster... and this one I've been trying to track down for a long time.

An Iowa Interstate GP38-2 runs light from the UP's Shortline Yard in East Des Moines into downtown on old C&NW rails.

Congratulations on the find!

Excellent paintscheme they've got going, I'm definitely a fan of those colors

~deke8706 Aug 1, 2008

Atta boy! I love the IAIS, but they're far enough away that it's just easier (and cheaper) to go see the ICE corn lines or the BNSF along The River

Now thats a colour scheme that has something to it. And clean looking too ^^

Though somehow, the image seems a bit pixelated, especially visible at the power lines and the rails... What did you use to adjust the size?

I'm using some crude tools on my old laptop to post from out of town. I'll be going back to the originals and reposting all of these with borders and my name after I get home.

~classictrains Jul 31, 2008

A lot of ties on heavily used routes are getting concrete.

~Wstv-News-23 Jul 31, 2008 Hobbyist General Artist

hmm this was the least used line lol at the cross

I wonder if their first gen's are hiding around there. I imagine they won't left after the new power comes in a couple month's.

Very clean looking. I've seen a couple in Council Bluffs along with very clean or semi-clean KCS Grain cars.
