Well What Do You Know?
Title:  Well What Do You Know?
Description:  "Well what do you know?" I said to myself as I got set to take this shot. I'd thought there would only be parked units down by the old Milwaukee Road Hopkins depot, but this trio of units were active, and they had a cut of cars coupled up to them!
