Remarks & Notes

CNW 6718,808 head an Extra Powers Turn around the wye with 29 cars near the ore dock. The CNW GP30's would be found around Escanaba every now and then during the late 70's if power became tight. They even put in the occasional stint in ore service if necessary. This is one of my few shots of them around Escanaba.
