TJ Gaspers	General	Looking at Bing Maps and birds eye view, its obvious that that there is indeed two flat cars back in the trees with modifications to the deck. Ya can almost see the coupler in this shot below the ivy. Have you gotten back there since to see any reporting marks on them?	5/11/2012 11:35:52 PM

The Slidebroker image by John Hill	General	I've not been back there since taking that picture, and have not seen any closer shots from anyone else. Xcel is VERY security-conscious in that area.	5/11/2012 11:47:19 PM

TJ Gaspers	General	No good... Those cars look trapped by a set of yellow painted wheel stops in one of the angles on Birds eye. Too bad no one can get back there- I wonder what exactly cars they are!	5/11/2012 11:50:18 PM

Jacob Nelson	General	The 2 flats back there are 8 axle I think, but are tan and have NSP on the side, but I have not been able to read any ID's when I have driven by there. I am tempted to take pics, but again as you have mentioned, they ave very security conscious!	12/1/2012 5:31:08 PM

"End of the line" near Xcel plant. Unknown structure (or perhaps raihcar) is sitting on the track. WARNING - Xcel claims this segment of trackage is part of their private property, and not to enter without advance permission. This photo was taken with permission from an Xcel emtloyee. I did not have permission to approach the structure for a closer look.
