DME 3801
Title:  DME 3801
Description:  two years later, the City of Midland was still working the various yards/industries around Muscatine. Seriously, the serious lack of trains and decent weather last year caused me to do more exploration of the area and South Muscatine looks like it would take some work to model.

DME 6078
Title:  DME 6078
Description:  I wonder if the lead engine wasn't repainted here (it has no mention of DME ownership) was due to the impending takeover of DME/ICE by CP.

IC&E Trucks Sit under Threatening Skies
Title:  IC&E Trucks Sit under Threatening Skies
Description:  No sign of the change in ownership of the line was visible, other than the office no longer displays the IC&E Logo - the crossings still say IC&E rather than CP and I did not see any CP locomotives (I did see a rent a wreck, IC&E, DM&E, UP, and BNSF locomotives). This was basically a precursor to the entire trip - almost no trains and bad weather (very hot and humid, lots of clouds, thunderstorms, and rain). You just have to love Iowa in August. I had much better luck taking pictures here in May two years ago.

UP 6712
Title:  UP 6712
Description:  Visible is one of the last (of what was once hundreds) of pearl button (they used to use real pearl, but since the 1950s use plastic or nylon) factories once located in Muscatine. Too bad this isn't still in full C&NW OLS Paint! This by the way was the only train in decent light I saw the entire trip, so enjoy.

If only it had a DPU
Title:  If only it had a DPU
Description:  or if I would have actually saw a train going north - but I'll have to keep this spot in mind for later (it turns out that the rest of this trip had lousy weather and no NB trains other than locals so maybe next trip - or maybe someone else can catch a train there in good conditions (you have a limited window of good lighting because of the arrangement of the tracks in Muscatine along the river, you pretty need a train to come exactly at the right time)

UP 5992
Title:  UP 5992
Description:  MidAmerican Energy Company, Powder River Coal - I believe that the destination is the Louisa Generating Station just south of Des Moines, it travels over the CP/IC&E from Clinton to Muscatine - you have to wonder how long this train will continue operated by UP given that MidAmerican Energy Compay is owned by Berkshire Hathaway which is also buying BNSF)

ICE 103
Title:  ICE 103
Description:  After taking this photo, I was confronted by a rent a cop from Monsanto because they had locked out their workers and don't want any photos taken near their factory due to "labor strife." Silly Monsanto, haven't you heard that stopping people from taking photos from public roads equals nothing but bad publicty.

DME 3801
Title:  DME 3801
Description:  This local goes up a spur near the end of Mississippi Avenue to serve local industry - I'm not sure which factory it serves up there, but from maps it appears to extend about half a mile from the river. There is a yard along that spur at the HNI (HON Industries) laminate plant and walking I was not able to find out exactly where the spur ends (it may only go as far as 5th Street). The weather was really lousy this day.

Aaron F. Barrett (Ingram Barge Lines) at Sunrise
Title:  Aaron F. Barrett (Ingram Barge Lines) at Sunrise
Description:  I say this is a railroad photo - I was standing on a trail made from a former MILW yard/industrial lead (the yard was moved away from the river so it wouldn't flood so often). Anyway, these guys work with/compete (not really, Mississippi River traffic is heavily subsidized by the tax payers - in fact, one of the reasons why there is no so much flood problems on the Mississippi is that the Army Corp of Engineers cares more about having navigation and protecting navigation on the river than keeping people safe from flooding - not to mention the canalization of the river has kept it out of its normal flood plain (and of course, people have built/farmed extensively on the flood plain which is also heavily subsidized by the federal government))

Sunrise
Title:  Sunrise
Description:  Anyone who questions whether this is in fact a railroad picture should note that the park and trail I was standing on is located on a former Milwaukee Road yard and industrial lead before they were moved further from the river. Therefore, I say it counts. The river, of course, is the mighty Mississippi. The tug is the Aaron F. Barrett of the Ingram Barge Co.

SOO 1532
Title:  SOO 1532
Description:  Former MILW, so this unit is back on home tracks - and to think, its actually possible that this unit could have been in Muscatine in the 1970s/early 1980s as an MILW, in Muscatine as a SOO unit in the 1980s, and now back in Muscatine as a SOO unit in the 2010s.
