A few years ago, the Twin Cities had a special locomotive show up, and ran on nearly every Canadian Pacific Local. What was it? Delaware and Hudson 7304, one of the LAST locomotives in the railroads classy blue and gray paint. While it wasn't here for long, it sure was memorable! Recent news has likely sealed this locomotives fate though. :/
Lets take a step back in time to 2018, and 2019. For a short period of time, a rare and classy Delaware and Hudson locomotive was operating in the Minneapolis and Saint Paul area. Lets chase this power as it worked for Canadian Pacific on most of its local such as the HAT, CPBN, and even Northfield Job. This engine sounded GREAT, and had a habit of smoking all the time.
