John, that video is awesome. Always nice to catch a good string like that. I like those new logo coal gons. I don't think they make it down to the Cities that often. They stop at Becker?

Not exactly TCR coverage area but I doubt there will be any complaints... As seen in Outstate Minnesota Rail (OMR): Here are the pictures and video from my impromptu trip home on Tuesday. CSXT 8418 under the old SOO Line Bridge between Gregory and Rice: http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnfladung/2110058460/ Coal empties led by BNSF 9636 at the second or third public crossing east of Gregory: http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnfladung/2109283465/ Crossing gate, if you look closely the remaining sunlight is trying to glint of the gate assembly and sign. http://www.flickr.com/photos/johnfladung/2110058510/ And finally onto the video. Enjoy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0od6-pNb27E |

Thanks John. That sure is a fun area to railfan the traffic seems to get backed up around Little Falls quite a bit. |

That was fun, thanks for posting! That CSX lead coal empty was some re-reroute as it came up the St. Croix sub from LaCrosse and points east. E-CCABTM was the symbol used by the Northtown switch tender. That horn on the CSX was pretty sick, sounded like some kind of animal or something. |
