First At Owatonna! |
| Description: |
In all my years as a railfan, I'd not ever seen any trains on any of the lines in Owatonna. That dry spell broke at last about ten minutes before 5 p.m. on Memorial Day 2025, when I bagged this westbound CPKC power at State Avenue. Note the other two railfans in the left background, partially obscured by weeds. Note also the KCS component (air conditioner?) installed on CP 8902 |

Rail Train With A Belle |
| Description: |
A rail train parked in the upper northeast side of Humboldt was the primary occupant of this part of the yard late on a Sunday afternoon. The KCS Southern Belle was a nice touch, and provided a vibrant contrast to the two stored CP units left in what was once a long deadline. |

Still Intact--For Now |

Into The Valley |

The old MN&S main still descends into the valley south of Auto Club Road, awaiting the resumption of TC&W grain trains to Savage. However, when the grain market finally allows for that to happen, first they'll need to remove that fallen tree, cut back the one behind it, and in general, fix up the tracks before the first train shows up. |

This was the best shot I got of the North Pole Express 2024 in a sequence of three. My location just north of the Union Depot spur upon which the NPE operates was due to lack of parking closer by, but never, ever underestimate a railfan's resourcefulness and tenactiy! :-) |

In For Work? |
| Description: |
To my surprise, PGR 34 was parked on the spur leading into Ziegler CAT this day. Perhaps she was in awaiting work of some sort? Whatever the reason, it made for a unique photo. |

Parked Separately |
| Description: |
Usually Progressive Rail's Dan Patch Line power can be found coupled together at the open air "shops" west of Lyndale Avenue on the old Hi-Line. This mild Saturday afternoon, however, they were decoupled with PGR 34 on the spur into Ziegler CAT and PGR 36 out on the main. Perhaps the 34 was awaiting repairs of some sort? |

Where The Rails Vanish |
| Description: |
"Look at this. Awwww..." I lamented to my friend Andy as we viewed the end of track on the old NP Skally Line on the north side of the 104th Street North grade crossing. I then lamented aloud how Milwaukee Road F45s and other cool units that Andy had told me about once passed by here. Those were the days! |

From Yard Goat To Mill Switcher |
| Description: |
Former BNSF switcher 3518 has now traded a yard goat's duties for that of a mill switcher's at Meadowlands Co-Op in Walnut Grove. Despite her BNSF lettering being removed, she still casts an aura of the glory days when she and her stablemates could be found throughout the BNSF system. |
