AMTK 22 (Amtrak 7) |
| Description: |
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. |

About one more car to go before clearing DL Switch. AMTK 22 and the westbound Empire Builder will reverse through DL Switch and wait for the eastbound Empire Builder. Extreme weather has wreaked havoc on Amtrak this December. |

Empire Builder Meet |
| Description: |
A very rare meet between the eastbound and westbound Empire Builders in Grand Forks. Also rare, BNSF 1010 leading the way. In almost 4 years of living in Grand Forks, this is the first time I've been able to catch this extremely rare daylight meet. How rare is it? AMTK 7 has to be >5 hours late and AMTK 8 has to be >10 hours late. |
