When you hear 'Gray Ghost' or 'Battleship Grey', what comes to mind? Do you think of a haunted area, or large looming battleship? What about some old school Kansas City Southern locomotives!? Lets check out some now RARE KCS power that is making its way up towards Minnesota.

We'll focus on KCS's Grey/Gray ghosts, and even see a former Milwaukee Road unit leading on its home rails. The Milwaukee Road unit is over 50 years old at this point, and SMOKES a lot under load. In this video, we'll see a mix of EMDs, and GE's leading the way. Locations include Saint Paul, Shortline Hill, Maple Springs, Hastings, and many other spots mixed in. Along the way, Amtrak makes a few appearances, adding to the mix.
