Union Pacific coal train at Squaw Creek showing new retaining wall
Monday, February 18, 2013, 9:51 AM. Riverside Drive in Ames, Iowa, was about four feet from being undermined by Squaw Creek when the city decided that a retaining wall was in order. It appears to be almost complete now except for some landscaping, as can be seen in the foreground of this video showing an eastbound Union Pacific coal train crossing the bridge over Squaw Creek. Just after this train passed, I could hear the bell on the engine of a westbound train approaching, but it turned out to be a couple of yard engines bringing a few cars to back onto the siding of Skei Coal and Salt just east of Grand Avenue.
