DRI 109
Title:  DRI 109
Description:  "The Milwaukee Road had two cabooses built to Burlington Northern standards for use on the Columbia coal trains to Portage, Wisconsin. After the Soo Line took over, they were renumbered, patched and could be seen all over the system. Westbound train 228 is pulling down through Bettendorf, Iowa on Sunday, April 7, 1991 with Soo Line 163 bringing up the markers. Davenport Rock Island and North Western SW1200s 108 and 109 sit on one of the adjacent yard tracks, waiting to go back to work on Monday." Photograph by Lance.

Davenport, Rock Island & Northwestern (DRI)
Title:  Davenport, Rock Island & Northwestern (DRI)
Description:  The DRI was an old-school switching & terminal road, owned by the Class 1s serving the Quad Cities. By 1995, however, mergers had reduced the owners to BN and Soo Line, so they pulled the plug on June 29, 1995. The DRI was split between the owners and ceased to exist, after 100 or so years. Here, the crew is switching their yard in the north part of Davenport, putting together a train to switch Alcoa in Bettendorf.
