St. Paul Union Depot's Original Sign |

I was amazed when I was told this is the original sign from St. Paul Union Depot. Whether or not it will return to SPUD is a good question, but for now the Iron Horse Central is giving it a safe haven. (My thanks to Eric for the permission to take this pic of this relic.) |

Memories Of The Louie |
| Description: |
A photo of an M. & St. L. Alco stands atop a small set of shelves located in the station agent's area. On the first shelf is a copy of Frank Donovan's "Mileposts On The Prairie", the first book ever written about the Tootin' Louie. Beneath it is a copy of "Railroads: The Great American Adventure." I read that book when I was younger. In fact, I practically memorized it. God bless National Geographic for displaying an interest in railroads! I was tempted to take a peek at Donovan's book, but I did not think to ask the docent on duty if that was okay or not. |

Tootin' Louie, Looking East |
| Description: |
Finding an active ex-Minneapolis & St. Louis line is as rare as finding a full-fledged arcade at a shopping mall. The Tootin' Louie is alive and well in Hamburg, Minnesota, though. Here we are looking east along the line from the Park Avenue grade crossing near Bicentennial Park. |

Tootin' Louie, Looking West |
| Description: |
We are looking west along the former Minneapolis & St. Louis from the Park Avenue grade crossing. Note the "Hamburg" station sign. Also of note is this is where the Milwaukee 261 did a photo runby in October of 2016 during her first trip on the Louie. I wonder if the crew will do the same this year? |

The History Is On The Door |
| Description: |
The door to the station master's office at the Fairfax depot museum sports this nifty summary of the history of the Minneapolis & St. Louis. Of the Chicago and North Western's purchase of the Louie, the history says: "November 1, 1960 - sold entire system to Chicago North Western R R (a hostile takeover!)" Hostile or not in business terms, the North Western's purchase ultimately proved hostile to miles of the Louie that would up torn up and left to be either plowed under, return to nature, or become rail trails. The fact the Louie remains not only intact but operated through Fairfax is nothing short of a miracle if you ask me. |

Inside The Freight Room |
| Description: |
Inside the freight room of the Fairfax depot, you can now find a cornucopia of artifacts and memorabilia devoted to Fairfax and the Minneapolis & St. Louis courtesy of the museum that now occupies the depot. The movie camera and popcorn machine at lower left came from the now closed Fairfax theater. I do not know if the M. & St. L. sign came from Fairfax or another depot. |

Honoring The Last Trains |
| Description: |
This sign in the station agent's office at the Fairfax depot honors the last passenger trains to stop at the depot in July of 1960. A few months later, the Em and Saintell would follow them into Valhalla. These trains were the "doodlebug" and trailer types that were a staple on the Louie for decades. Their spirit lingers on within the rails that pass by the Fairfax depot. |

Parked On The Prairie |

Entering Winthrop aboard the 261 Fall Colors trip, I spotted an old friend from my teenage years: former Dakota Rail SW1200 1206, now a lease unit but still wearing those nifty DAKR colors! When the train left town, I snapped this portrait. Note how my old friend has been equipped with a snow shovel, still a practical accessory in these latitudes. |

Monticello Subdivision At Main Avenue Northeast |
| Description: |
Here is the BNSF Monticello Subdivision down at Main Avenue Northeast, the last grade crossing before the "Monte" Local reaches its turnaround point in town. Shame the train was not in on this mild February day. |

BN painted the couplers on their waycars yellow to match the ends? I had forgotten that. |

Here we are looking north along the BNSF Monte Sub towards where the Monte Local usually has its power turned before the crew heads back to Northtown Yard. Note BN 10187 on display in Lions Park at left. |

Where The Monticello Sub Crosses The Crow |
| Description: |
A zoom shot from the 42nd Street NE grade crossing netted this fine portrait of the venerable bridge over the Crow River along BNSF's Monticello Subdivision. On this mild and cloudy February afternoon, the bridge was patiently awaiting the next run of the Monte Local. |
