BNSF 5370 and Canadian Pacific 5424 pull a mixed freight around the curve after just crossing the Mississippi River. Mile Marker 205 is visible in this snowy day photo on 13 Dec 2005. 

A strange GP locomotive sits at the siding near the Burlington, Iowa depot on 11 June 2005. I think this is an old Santa Fe unit, it is the only one I have seen like this. It is probably not rare, just rare in this town. 

Nearly brand new, BNSF units 5894 & 5895 sit at the siding near the Burlington, Iowa depot. Locomotives are parked here while their coal train is being unloaded at the power plant 5 miles south of town. 9 Mar 2006. 
