| My Empire Builder in La Crosse WI - Photo by Dennis Weber |
Traveled Empire Builder February 20-22
A true Winter Snow Trip - Wow, what a snow trip. Literally there was a deep snow pack as I traveled on the Empire Builder Tuesday night from Seattle, WA, until I arrived Chicago, IL, Friday 5 PM. The trip actually began by bus from Seattle to Spokane, WA. It was a non stop 5 hour trip via I-90 and the scenery was beautiful and my attempted photos from a fast moving bus mostly during dark hours from 5 PM to 10 PM was a failure but I will include a few bus photos when I post my photos to my photo galleries. Fortunately, the complete trip Thursday and Friday was in sunny no precipitation weather so I took lots of photos. Although sunny, the temperatures all the way were near 0 degrees or minus a few degrees. I am including over 40 photos in this blog update. They will also be included in my photo galleries I post after I get home in a couple weeks. All of these photos I took except for the lead photo above. Another Amtrak fan Dennis Weber posted this photo to Facebook Friday as we traveled through La Crosse, WI. He did give me permission to include this photo in my galleries and travel blog.
I am in rainy Chicago today and until 8 PM Sunday night. I board Amtrak's City of New Orleans for an overnight trip to New Orleans arriving around 4 PM Monday afternoon. Not sure that I will take many photos but I will post another blog update from New Orleans Tuesday.
Here are the over 40 selected photos from my trip on the Empire Builder. You can click on the photos to see the full size photo.
