Bandit At Northtown |

Some CP units were parked down in the southeastern end of Northtown Yard when I visited recently. This ex-Milwaukee Road "bandit" was the pick of them (natch). |

The Deadline Remains |
| Description: |
The deadline at Humboldt Yard, containing the last Soo/Milwaukee "Bandit", 2010 (at far right) remains even as the hours count down until Canadian Pacific Kansas City comes into being. How much longer will these units put out to pasture be able to soak up the sun on lovely days like this one until they meet their destiny? |

Back On Home Rails One Last Time |
| Description: |
Now sold but still clad in faded "bandit" paint, Soo 2010 was at the Pig's Eye roundhouse on a showery Saturday afternoon. Usable parts have been removed by CPKC, so the new owner might be a scrapper. Hail and farewell to the last ex-Milwaukee Road unit on the CPKC, sitting here on home rails one last time. |

Soo/Milwaukee |
| Description: |
A former Milwaukee Road "bandit" GP40 sits at the head of a quartet of SD60s on the south side of the engine service area at Pig's Eye. The fluttering wind socket is indicative of the sharp winds blowing at the head of a band of rain approaching St. Paul this day. |

Approaching Laurel Avenue |

A very early 0630 approaches Laurel Avenue as the crew heads back north, passing the site of the recently abandoned spur track. (Is CP going to pick those ties up, or is the spur going to be rebuilt?) |

Soo Line! |
| Description: |
The northbound 0630-running very early-crosses Golden Hills Drive on its way north with one car in tow. After getting used to the new Canadian Pacific ECO units, finding ex-Soo Line golden oldies in Golden Valley was quite a treat, especially since one of them still wore her Soo colors. |
