A westbound local has GP40-2 2650 and GP50 4087 in charge in this early 90's shot. Neither engine has had ditch lights installed yet, and the GP50 is nearing it's retirement.
A Wisconsin Central gondola loaded with scrap is up first, followed by a short string of rock hoppers.
After a AP&W boxcar, a string of kaolin clay slurry tank cars. All are destined for the local paper mill.
Another boxcar, this time a TTX car, another tank car, and more gondolas. The Herzog gons can often be found carrying large rocks used for rip-rap on hillsides (to hold them in place).
Finally, at the very end, the caboose! Since this is a local, it has one.
