Featuring some Amtraks.

Today I was heading up to Wisconsin as I had a big event I was planning to attend on Sunday, but given I didn't need to be up at my hotel until later, I wanted to try and chase a manifest up the C&M to Wisconsin, luckily CPKC 247 came in clutch. After hearing that 247 had a KCS AC44 with a rare Nathan K3LP, so I decided to chase them North and it was pretty successful. As well as chasing 247, we managed to see a couple of Amtraks in the process, including Amtrak 514 leading the Hiawatha, as well as the WB Builder meeting the EB Borealis. All in all, a good day nonetheless, especially since 4585 was working hard as it was the only engine in the consist online, but we got a fun day coming up tomorrow, so not much else needs to be said. Enjoy!
