17th Street Yard in Superior is crawling with life. there is only two EMDs in among a ton of GE's. A CN Dash 9 sits alone on a ready track, a trio Dash 9s wait for their next assignment, a ES44AC and a pair of SD70MACs may have came to Superior with either a coal or a taconite train. a Dash 9 is with a rare CN Dash 8 - 40CM (which would be in view in the evening, and several other GEs are parked there, this is the biggest overlay of locomotives I have ever seen here |

| Description: |
It's just so strange to see a DC powered GEVO on a taconite train. I only seen ES44ACs on them and one ES44C4. This is the first on the Hinckley Sub. for me. Also if there is any RRPA Contributors along the Hinckley Sub. I will be back in Hinckley next Monday to spend a day there if you like to join me |

BNSF 778 North |
| Description: |
Only 30 minutes behind BNSF 5877 North, BNSF 778 North arrives in Hinckley with a great looking leader. This is my first Warbonnet leader in 3 months (Since BNSF 4719 lead a intermodal train in Rochelle on 7/15). A ES44DC is the second unit, which is very surprising on taconite trains. I saw a DPU on a loaded taconite train on Saturday on the way to church which was a ES44DC |
