Remarks & Notes

The Milwaukee Road is ending its operations in the western United States. This is the 2nd to the last train, which is heading east with a collection of the remaining motive power and rolling stock from Tide Flats yard in Tacoma, WA. Even with 5 engines, the train is struggling as it crosses Mine Creek Bridge.
