There Goes The DPU
Title:  There Goes The DPU
Description:  The DPU unit on an eastbound unit sand or potash train taking the hole at Long Lake emerges from the other side of my pedestrian bridge vantage point as the train nears a stop prior to a meet with two ex-BN SD60s toting a rotary plow/locomotive combo west ... a train I utterly failed to catch due to a couple foul-ups with my camera! Oh well, the light *was* fading since it was near dusk by this time.

First Catch Of 2009!!!!
Title:  First Catch Of 2009!!!!
Description:  Here is a westbound BNSF general freight thundering through Long Lake on a delightful unseaonally mild last day of January. For power, the crew has a quartet of GE's at their disposal. Note the traffic flowing east and west along the finally opened Highway 12 bypass which parallels the BNSF from the western border of Wayzata to the outskirts of Maple Plain. Catching this train marks the start of the 2009 railfan season for me.

First Catch Here In Awhile!
Title:  First Catch Here In Awhile!
Description:  I had not railfanned in Long Lake itself for months; I just let the trains on the Wayzata sub roll by with only a casual glance now and then. Not so today: here we have two BNSF GE's toting a short string of heavy-duty industrial hoppers (only way I can describe 'em) through town as traffic flows on nearby Hig–way 12. Anybody know what they're hauling is called?

ES44's Waitin'
Title:  ES44's Waitin'
Description:  Stopped by red signals, the unseen crew of a westbound general freight waits patiently beneath gloomy March skies with a brace of ES44ACs for power. Since the highway 12 bypass (i.e. "new 12") is now open, I had to hang back by the fence at an emergency access gate to get this shot in a gap between traffic passing east to west. While doing so, the Doobie Brothers tune "Long Train Runnin'" was chugging along on my MP3 player. Get down, man.
