IAIS 315270 |
| Description: |
IAIS 315270, the last car in this train, carries a red flag in the coupler, not a FRED or EOT device. The car has grabirons between the end ribs, a reinforcement plate centered on the end, and a sign stating "DO NOT HUMP" on the right side of the car. The load appears to be scrap metal of some kind--this train had several gondolas like this one full of scrap. Colfax, IA: 4-21-2012. This is the last photo of an IAIS piece of rolling stock I've taken since that day. |

IAIS right of way, looking east |
| Description: |
The Iowa Interstate Railroad (IAIS) has three tracks going through Colfax, IA. The main track is in the center, the north track (to the left) clearly hasn't seen much traffic in a while, and the south track (to the right) has a lot of ballast but not so much as the main track. An eastbound train had just come through here a few minutes before I took this photo. |

| Description: |
This car is parked on someone's private property. I don't remember the name of the city or town where I took this photo, but it was from across the highway (US 36). I did NOT venture onto the owner's property. Please respect the private ownsership of this caboose and the other items in the collection--you can't see much from this cropped photo but there were several other items. |

CNW 10909 |
| Description: |
Former C&NW caboose 10909 rests on a short piece of track north of I-80 near Colfax, IA. This is a fairly recent addition to the railroad items already here--from at least 2009, a group of volunteers has been restoring a former depot (I don't remember which railroad used to own it). I don't remember seeing this caboose in autumn 2009, the only other time I was here. BTW, there is also a well-stocked hobby shop near here (behind and to the right of this photo) and, in a house, an operating Lionel-themed layout open during parts of the year. I think the name is Train Town or Train World but I hope to visit here again! April 22, 2012. |
