A Northern Pacific manifest led by four EMD FT's grids its way over the pass on bright, sunny day.

The four FT's growl as they tug their consist up the hill.

The NP manifest trumbles over one of many bridges on the pass.

Thanks jan. I hope to post more and hope that others post some of their shots as well.

Here are some more that I didn't get a chance to post earlier.

One of the Great Northern's small, regional trains is snaking its way through hills on its way to Kila. The train is led by 4 EMD F7's this morning and is running abnormally long at 16 cars due to a large muber of travellers.

Here we see the train departing Kila in the early morning hours.

Zooming along just west of Holly.
