At just over 5 hours behind schedule, the westbound Empire Builder races north into Grand Forks and kicks up a mini-blizzard on a snowy Saturday morning. Things have been rough on the Empire Builders the past few days with all the crazy weather between Seattle and Chicago; this one will meet its eastbound counterpart in Grand Forks...an extremely rare meet. In the spirit of historic integrity, I digitally removed a reflector sign on the left side of this image. |
