Soo Line in Mulliken
About the time I moved here, the Soo Line abandoned its Upper Peninsula heritage, sold the track to Wisconsin Central, and started running trains on CSX's old Pere Marquette mainline between Chicago and Detroit--and on to Canada. Emotionally I didn't like the move, but it did bring Soo Line locomotives into my daily life. The occasional old Alco which showed up in those years was a bonus for my railfan tendencies.
Then the Soo Line was fully absorbed by parent line Canadian Pacific, and most of the locomotives were repainted to CP's red.
This photo--with Soo Line locomotives!--was captured a couple days ago. The road must be running near capacity, and pulling old locos out of mothballs....
Photo taken from Mulliken's Main Street, looking west, under far from ideal conditions. Looks kinda like a Monet in the larger size, if you can imagine Monet in Michigan and chasing trains. I confess it's a bit of a stretch.
