What Are You Two Doing Here?
Title:  What Are You Two Doing Here?
Description:  I got this shot of the Midway yard power from the Amtrak/Friends Of The 261 fall color trip to Winona as we eased through Union Yard. However, these units appear to have shoved a cut of COFC cars right down into the Union Pacific's East Minneapolis yard, as the NS units in the left background indicate.
