Iowa Interstate-Walford to South Amana

Iowa Interstate's Cedar Rapids-South Amana "turn" at the top of Walford Hill.

Down the hill comes CRSA-20

....heading into the Amana valley.

CRSA-20 climbing the east wye at Yocum Connection....

....nearing the top and onto homerails with some bovines waiting on their next meal
from their "master"(to my right, on a tractor).

The "turn" backs toward the Dennis H. Miller Yard to tie down.

IAIS 502 idling(ES44AC).....

and IAIS 155(SD38-2).

A Sultran hopper.

Eagle Watch 2013-Pt 12 & a Pekin

The Eagles were few and far in between today. The weather may have played a part; it was windy.

Seen this Pekin duck hanging around Otis Rd SE swimming along the shoreline.
