I was driving home through Pontiac yesterday when I noticed something unusual (but exciting) on the Wolverine 355 as it sat in the Pontiac station. Due to some road and utility work, I wasn't able to turn around for photos, so when I got back toward home I positioned myself near the main crossing on 9 Mile Road here in Ferndale and waited. Right on cue just after 6 P.M., 355 came through. Take a look!

IP owns a handful of full domes. From my understanding, the GN dome is used for charters & special events. The HS dome(s) are in a different paint scheme and say "Iowa Pacific" on them, and I believe the Pullman dome says "Pullman" on it.

Someone reported on another forum that this dome was a charter by some International Railfan group.
