Following the Great River Road - a photo on Flickriver

            The Empire Builder curves along the grade of the CPKC River Subdivision that parallels US 61 for the majority of its route from Saint Paul except for a section between Hastings and Red Wing.  US 61 hosts the Great River Road and part of driving the Great River Road is the chance to see Amtrak activity.  I shot a similar angle in February 2023, and I decided to do another take with a trio of Siemens ALC-42s leading the Empire Builder.  I like this overall scene with the highway, railroad, bluffs, and white pines.  This is taken just east of Lamoille in Winona County.
