The Whole Train |
| Description: |
Finally, here is a portrait of the whole train. The motive power had nine steel coil cars and three empty bulkhead flats strung out behind them. All these cars were destined for shippers located west of Highway 169 along Uncle Pete's Golden Valley Industrial Lead. This line has roots back to not only the Chicago and North Western but also the Minneapolis & St. Louis and the Minnesota Western. |

Out To Lunch? |
| Description: |
A closer look at the stopped Union Pacific local I came across early on the afternoon of July 13 along the Golden Valley Industrial Lead (ex-Chicago and North Western, exx-Minneapolis & St. Louis, exx-Minnesota Western). Looks like the crew had gone to lunch (aka "beans")? |

The Union Pacific local sits paused just east of Highway 169 and Mendelsshon Avenue North on an unseasonably cloudy and cool July afternoon. |
