Описание: Canadian National Railway - DM&IR on Proctor Hill - EMD Locomotives - Missabe

At flash back to November of 2008. We are in the brown of autumn with no snow on the ground yet in the Twin Ports. We start close to the top of Proctor Hill at Spirit Mountain with the Proctor Road Switch (PRS) grinding its way to the top with DMIR 406, IC 6252 and DMIR 400. Next we drive out to Culver, MN for a loaded steaming taconite train with DMIR 402, DMIR 403, IC 6250, BLE 903 and DMIR 407. The following day we go back to Proctor Hill to watch the PRS descend down Proctor hill with DMIR 400, IC 6252 and DMIR 406.
