UP Local At Gowrie  Contributor's Pick!       
HELM 347 leads a two-unit local with UP 368 at Gowrie Iowa on a hot summer day. At one time the small town of Gowrie had seven lines from four roads radiating out of it. It's now down to the a single through path, the north/south route that was once part of the M&StL. The old east/west CNW tracks survive from here to serve elevators. Grain and ethynol appears to make up most of the traffic these days.
