Nothing On The Main Track (Yet)
Title:  Nothing On The Main Track (Yet)
Description:  Since the main track signal visible in the far right corner) is blank, you might assume this eastbound freight had been stopped for no reason. Soon, however, the light will flash green, because Milwaukee Road 261 was chugging eastward from Willmar when this picture was taken.

An Eclectic Mix
Title:  An Eclectic Mix
Description:  This and it's companion shot came out a wee bit fuzzy for some reason, maybe the lighting conditions did it. Anyay, the MP15 sandwiched between the Dash Nine and 40-2 is a bit of extra freight for the crew on this westbound general manifest racing through Long Lake, for it will be dropped off in Willmar.
