South Minneapolis or New Ulm? |
| Description: |
This photo begs the question, where are we? Down by the mills in South Minneapolis, or at a mill in New Ulm? It is the latter, of course, but this wonderful sight calls to mind the former! |

Glorious Vision! |
| Description: |
No, this isn't any dream. Two veteran Soo Line geeps, complete with "torpedo tubes" (tubes for steam boilers they were once equipped with), can be found at a mill in New Ulm in 2024! |

Harvest Land Co-Op has this snappy-looking Paducah Geep for power. Wonder what was in that tank car the dude at right is working on? |

Awesome |
| Description: |
What else can I say about Genesee & Wyoming's narly paint scheme? I like how RCP&E units have small "Operation Livesaver" signs on them too. |

Where the CPKC and RCP&E Meet |
| Description: |
The sign at Tracy West says it all: this is where CPKC ownership ends and RCP&E's begins on this part of the famous "Alco Line". |

Portrait In Prairie Railroading |
| Description: |
The RCP&E's AKA M-AUMN job waiting at West Tracy late on a hazy, partly sunny summer afternoon offered a portrait in prairie railroading for me and my buddyn Andy this day. Thanks again, Andy, for spotting this baby from all the way up on U.S. 14! :-) |

Thanks to my buddy Andy's eagle eyes, we finally found the Rapid City, Pierre, and Eastern's AKA M-AUMN job waiting at Tracy West late on a hazy (but for us by no means lazy!) summer afternoon. |
