St. Paul Turn
Title:  St. Paul Turn
Description:  A close-up of the motive power of the TC&W St. Paul Turn as the engines idle away beneath a grey December sky after the crew had brought the train back to the Hopkins depot after the trip into the Cities. Interesting to note is how TC&W GP20C 3516 is still sporting its "Generation II Locomotives" paint job even after suffering a small fire some time ago.

Hello Again, 3516!

Description:  I hadn't seen the 3516 in ages. She was second of three units on what was apparently the recently returned St. Paul Turn as the crew switched down at the Hopkins/Minnetonka border.

The Old And The New

Still Running
Title:  Still Running
Description:  TCWR's "ghost" unit, 3516, soaks up the sun on a siding near (but not in) the dead line on a fine Saturday afternoon. I've seen this unit twice up in Hopkins this year, so this "ghost" is still running.
