CNW 1515, ALCo's 1st RSD-4 (based on serial number), leads a local freight at Tracy, MN. My memory tells me the train was leaving the yard here, but my memory also tells me the train was headed east; based on the orientation of the yard on Google maps and the shadow on the nose and my having been in Tracy during the morning, clearly my memory is not too accurate and this is a westbound local freight. At least I'm sure it was Tracy, MN; the negative sleeve confirms that much.
