Passing The Platforms Again
Title:  Passing The Platforms Again
Description:  The power on a MNNR train back from the Hiawatha mills in Minneapolis runs around its train on a side track at Amtrak Midway prior to shoving it up into their yard. The brakeman riding the steps was a real nice dude when I cheerfully greeted them and the old white mustached hogger gave me a wave. Gentlemen, you are a true credit to the industry!

Nose Shot
Title:  Nose Shot
Description:  Usually you can view MNNR locos from the south side of the roundhouse. On this Easter Sunday, however, a string of boxcars mostly blocked out the view. I got lucky with this shot, though. The barbed wire-topped chain link fence indicates just what kind of neighborhood the Commercial's roundhouse sits in. Stay alert when you visit, railfans!

MNNR At ADM
Title:  MNNR At ADM
Description:  The MNNR crew is just about done with their switching duties at ADM's mill located on their Hiawatha Switching District. This is why Minneapolis was dubbed The Mill City, folks. Soon the crew will take their loads back to MNNR's St. Paul yard, where they will be turned over to the BNSF and other roads for shipment beyond the Twin Cities.

Far From The Frisco
Title:  Far From The Frisco
Description:  I just learned this baby is an ex-Frisco unit. Sure is cool to see it still in operation, and on former Milwaukee Road rails too. In this case, the rails of MNNR's Hiawatha Switching District, serving the last operating Minneapolis mills. I had long wanted to catch the Minnesota Commercial here, and finally got my chance just as the rain was ending late on an April morning in 2015.
