I'm up in Sioux City over the summer pretty often. My dad has been helping to restore Great Northern locomotive 1355 up by stone state park. We'll have to meet up sometime.

Cool pics. Thanks for posting. Small but nice selection of Ironheads, betwwn the Boattail, Cafe and the Bicentennial edition. Don' t see many of the latter with the original paint work. I know a lot of guys today don't like them, but bakc in the day they were considered the coolest thing going.
