No Opposing Traffic |

Here is a stopped eastbound general freight holding the main track in Long Lake. There was no opposing traffic, judging by the blank eastbound main signal, so congestion in Minneapolis must have been the issue. |

Wow, What A Catch! |

These two classic units were on the point of an eastbound general freight the BNSF dispatcher stopped in Long Lake for almost two hours before being cleared to proceed. The number "1997" is significant to me: it is the first year I began seriously railfanning. |

Dual-Flags On The Midway Sub |
| Description: |
I think this is a train from Duluth/Superior, but it could also be the CP-BNSF Northtown transfer. Whatever job it was I caught this day, here it is rolling down the old NP main. Now the BNSF Midway subdivision. The bridge carrying the U of M transitway over the line is in the distance. Beyond that, the Saints stadium. |

Slumbering On A False Spring Afternoon |
| Description: |
Stored power, including a veteran CP SD40-2 in faded "dual flag" red, an AC44CW in spiffier paint, and d surprisingly clean Soo/Milwaukee "bandit" GP40 and, apparently, a Soo GP38-2 slumber beneath graying skies on a false spring afternoon (the weather was balmy enough for light coats and long#shorts). |

Waiting Ballast Train |
| Description: |
The CPKC's Herzog ballast train, which arrived in town from Ortonville three days previously, waits at the west throat of Humboldt Yard on a humid, cloudy evening, (Not the best of shots, since I only had my cell phone camera, but better than nothing.) |

Boo Yah! |
| Description: |
"Boo yah!" I cried after snapping this shot of the CPKC train at Humboldt Yard. I thought I'd blown my only chance to bag this train, but lo and behold, there it was at the east end of the yard early on a Wednesday evening a week after I first saw the train! There are second chances in life, my friends. |
