Tootin' Louie, Looking East |
| Description: |
Finding an active ex-Minneapolis & St. Louis line is as rare as finding a full-fledged arcade at a shopping mall. The Tootin' Louie is alive and well in Hamburg, Minnesota, though. Here we are looking east along the line from the Park Avenue grade crossing near Bicentennial Park. |

Tootin' Louie, Looking West |
| Description: |
We are looking west along the former Minneapolis & St. Louis from the Park Avenue grade crossing. Note the "Hamburg" station sign. Also of note is this is where the Milwaukee 261 did a photo runby in October of 2016 during her first trip on the Louie. I wonder if the crew will do the same this year? |

The Old... |
| Description: |
MNVA Railroad plates issued by the U.S. Department of Transportation still adorn the crossbucks at the Park Avenue grade crossing long after that railroad with the colorful roster folded. |
