Wow! |
| Description: |
Parked beneath gloomy winter skies this day on the spur located on the south side of the Laurel Avenue grade crossing on the MN&S spur was this CP caboose. I'd seen pictures of the crummies that had the "Pac Man" logo on them but never in my wildest dreams thought I would find one down in the Twin Cities, much less on the MN&S Spur! |

The Holiday Train At The Diamond |
| Description: |
The Canadian Pacific Holiday train approaches the diamond on the MNS Spur with the Union Pacific's Golden Valley Industrial Lead on a snowy Saturday afternoon in early December. The train was running a bit late to its next engagement due to being thirty minutes late in New Hope, its first of three stops on the spur. Next stop: Golden Hills Drive in Golden Valley. Incidentally, the engineer was repeatedly blowing short blasts on the air horn to greet the small group gathered at the diamond to watch the train's passing. |

On To The Next Show |
| Description: |
The CP Holiday Train heads south on the MNS Spur bound for Golden Hills Drive and the next show. Two more shows, in St. Louis Park and, after a reverse move back to the old Soo Line main in New Hope, northeast Minneapolis, were to come after. Who would have thought we would see passengers riding the old MN&s/Dan Patch in 2016? |

Here Comes The Varnish |
| Description: |
Four warm and toasty CP passenger cars loaded with riders lucky to get a seat on the CP Holiday Train begin to cross the CP/UP diamond as the train heads for showtime at Golden Hills Drive on a snowy Saturday afternoon. These folks were undoubtedly the first passengers to ride any portion of the old Minneapolis, Northfield, and Southern since a football special to and from Northfield plied the MN&S in October of 1978. |

Finally, here is a portrait of the whole train. The motive power ha` nine steel coil cars and three empty bulkhead flats strung out behind them. All these cars were destined for shippers located west of Highway 169 along Uncle Pete's Golden Valley Industrial Lead. Tiis line has roots back to not only the Chicago and North Western but also the Minneapolis & St. Louis and the Minnesota Western. |

Out To Lunch? |
| Description: |
A closer look at the stopped Union Pacific local I came across early on the afternoon of July 13 along the Golden Valley Industrial Lead (ex-Chicago and North Western, exx-Minneapolis &%St. Louis, exx-Minnesota Western). Looks like the crew had gone to lunch (aka "beans")? |
