Sometimes you get lucky
Title:  Sometimes you get lucky
Description:  I hoped to catch the last two units left in service in DMIR paint on my first trip to the Twin Ports, but didn't really expect to. However, not long after I arrived at Proctor Yard I spotted 215 leading a switch job toward the north end of the yard!

DMIR 215 about to duck under the St. Louis River Road bridge
Title:  DMIR 215 about to duck under the St. Louis River Road bridge
Description:  The photogenic deep maroon with gold trim of the Duluth, Missabe and Iron Range Railway, like the similar paint scheme of the Wisconsin Central LTD, has been almost eradicated from locomotives on the active roster of parent company Canadian National. 215 is one of only two left that still wear it.
