Northtown's Hump Power |
| Description: |
A trio of BNSF SD40-2s--two of which are sporting the new "swoosh" logo--are today's hump power at Northtown Yard. Currently the units are approaching the 44th Avenue overpass, the cut of cars they are kicking almost complete. Soon they will sit at the top of the hump awaiting the hogger's next instructions. |

Last Week's Hump Power |
| Description: |
This trio of units was working the Northtown hump when I first photographed them a week before. On St. Paddy's Day 2015, they were parked near the Northtown yard tower awaiting their next assignment. |

Heir To The SD9s |
| Description: |
When I was a kid and later a teenager, SD9s were the yard power at Humboldt and SD40-2s were the road power. Today, the venerable '40-2 has assumed the duties of the SD9 at Northtown. |

Switching On A Spring Fever Day |
| Description: |
As spring fever grips the Twin Cities early, the yard hogger at Northtown has no time to play hooky as he nurses his venerable SD40-2 back and forth switching cars. The Canadian Pacific's Paynesville Sub crosses on the bridge in the background. |

Lots O' Power! |
| Description: |
BNSF loves to shuffle units from Willmar to the Twin Cities (and vice versa) by thoughtfully including them on the head end of trains. Most of the units you see here are hitching a ride (i.e., they are not powered up) but they still make an impressive sight as this eastbound freight approaches the County 15/Highway 12 bridge. |

Lehigh Valley Unit Where Art Thou? |
| Description: |
I came to Northtown on St. Patrick's Day 2015 in search of Norfolk Southern's Lehigh Valley heritage unit, which was reported as being on a Northtown bound train. Either it was hidden away near the diesel shop or had already departed by the time I took this still impressive pic. Note the unit smoking things up in the left foreground. |

Minneapolis Ho! |
| Description: |
For a minute or two this train was stopped by red signals facing west until the signal on the main track facing east was turned on to red, allowing this eastbound to continue its last lap into Minneapolis. Some of the units doubtless were along for the ride not providing power, as in at least the case of the MP15. |

Not always you can find an MP15 and an SD40-2 lashed together out on the Wayzata sub. Orginally I thought the 1804 was an ex-Frisco unit, only to learn from a fellow member it wasn't. Oh well ... |

| Description: |
This gondola looked like something on a model railroad. It was the first car behind the all-ex-BN motive power on this eastbound freight that red signals halted this day. |

The Burlington Northern lives! |
| Description: |
God bless the BNSF for how they have taken their time in repainting ex-BN units. The result is sights like this veteran BN lashup on an eastbound freight stopped by a red signal in Long Lake, MN. The dispatcher held them here for a couple hours, and then let the crew go ahead. |

BN units!!!! |
| Description: |
Man, it has been a while since I bagged some ex-BN units still wearing ex-BN paint in Long Lake! These three six-axle gems were on the point of an eastbound freight stopped by red signals. Dig those loads of scrap in the two gondolas behind them! |

The crew aboard this eastbound general freight the dispatcher tagged with a red signal in Long Lake have veteran ex-BN motive power at their disposal, and ones in the "whiteface" scheme at that! |
