TC&W St. Paul Turn Passing Under Highway 280.
Title:  TC&W St. Paul Turn Passing Under Highway 280.
Description:  It is late on a fine Saturday morning on the last day in September of 2006, and the daily TC&W Saint Paul turn is packing some serious motive power! TC&W GP30C 4301 is leading a Red River Valley and Western GP15C, and a TCW GP20 and GP30C as the hogger nurses his train past St. Anthony junction and the Minnesota Commercial yard. Note UP's east Minneapolis Yard (which used to be bigger in C&NW days. Way bigger, as I fondly recall from my childhood in the 1980's) in the center distance.

It's Still Here?
Title:  It's Still Here?
Description:  Last March I photographed the 4301 at Ziegler CAT. It has been two months, and the unit has either not left in all that time, or has come back for more work. Man I wish I could photograph it moving down the old Minneapolis, Northfield, and Southern...

Idling On The Main Track
Title:  Idling On The Main Track
Description:  I am used to finding TCWR units down by the former Milwaukee Road depot, but normally they are on the side track. These two units were idling down by the depot on the main track this morning. My cell phone camera came in handy since I had left my regular camera at home.
