The Deadline Remains
Title:  The Deadline Remains
Description:  The deadline at Humboldt Yard, containing the last Soo/Milwaukee "Bandit", 2010 (at far right) remains even as the hours count down until Canadian Pacific Kansas City comes into being.

Title:  Back On Home Rails One Last Time
Description:  Now sold but still clad in faded "bandit" paint, Soo 2010 was at the Pig's Eye roundhouse on a showery Saturday afternoon. Usable parts have been removed by CPKC, so the new owner might be a scrapper. Hail and farewell to the last ex-Milwaukee Road unit on the CPKC, sitting here on home rails one last time.

One of each
Title:  One of each
Description:  During the transition period where SOO was assimilating the Milwaukee, it was possible to see a mix of power. Here we have a patch painted MILW unit, and untouched MILW unit with a SOO unit trailing. In another few years, CP will absorb SOO fully, and the process will start again. This 71 car eastbound was rolling under Daytons Bluff at Hoffman Av.
