The New Bridge Over 100 |

Stopped In The "Bottleneck" |
| Description: |
The eastbound St. Paul Turn waits south of Cedar Lake Parkway for a green signal on a gorgeous September Saturday morning. The train is waiting in the southern end of the "bottleneck" which stretches between Cedar Lake and Lake Street along the Kenilworth Corridor, which has been a bone of contention in the "relocate freight rail/co-located freight rail with LRT" debate. |

"5390 Ft Clearance From This Point" |
| Description: |
A yellow signal keeps the eastbound St. Paul Turn (out of view behind me) from crossing Cedar Lake Parkway until the BNSF dispatcher can clear the crew onto the Wayzata Sub at Cedar Lake Junction. The sign which alerts the crew to how much clearance exists north of the parkway testifies as to how this is the narrowest part of the Cedar Lake-Lake Street "bottleneck." |

Stopped COFC |
| Description: |
BNSF routes most of its intermodal jobs over the Staples Sub, but the Wayzata Sub has begun to witness their passage too. I came upon this COFC job with a BNSF GE and a former BNSF EMD for power which had stopped for a red signal late on a lovely late September afzernoon. As the crew waited to proceed on into town, motorists going east and west on Highway 12 enjoyed being able to go as they pleased. |

A Celebratory Catch |

Was This The One? |
| Description: |
I found this ex-BN caboose sitting couple to a string of cars (mostly covered hoppers) on the old Northern Pacific passenger main south of Northtown Yard. Since the cupola windows are all plated over, this caboose now must function as a shoving platform. Was this the caboose I saw on the Wayzata Sub when I was a kid back in the mid-1980s which had the kind old railroader who waved back to me from the cupola? |

Running Light Across 394 |
| Description: |
The#northbound CP local crosses 394 as the crew runs light back to Humboldt Yard just before 8 A.M. on Veteran's Day 2015. I remember the Minneapolis, Northfield, and Southern-era bridge which used to stand here until massive highway improvements during the mid-1980s (?) resulted in the span you see here. |
