Along the Soo/WC ROW |
| Description: |
Riding the rear car GN A-11, you get a nice view of the track near Wanderoos. WC abandoned this section a few years after this photo, due to lack of business. Would have been a nice addition to the MTMs current route ending at Dresser to the west. |

Looking east on the Soo Line |
| Description: |
This was near the time that the Soo Line had a prolonged strike and the main line out here was very, quiet for over a month. I always liked the solitude out in North Dakota, and the wide open views. |
