Free Speech At Ford Yard? |
| Description: |
When I visited Ford Yard today I saw signs affixed to the two light poles and the wind socket pole still standing at Ford Yard. They did not quite look like railroad signs, so I slipped into the yard for a look. My, my, talk about free speech at Ford Yard. Someone in the Twin Cities must really hate E. Hunter Harrison (not that the man lacks for enemies). |

Street Art At Ford Yard? |
| Description: |
The south abutment of the Cleveland Avenue overpass over the throat of Ford Yard bears evidence of street artists, and relatively recent ones too, judging by how fresh the paint is. |

CP/MNNR Transfer |
| Description: |
I first spotted this train when I was down by the MNNR roundhouse. I headed up to the former Amtrak Midway station to be in position when it passed by. The train pulled up and stopped for a short while, enabling me to snap this and a few other pics of the train. |

Here Comes The Prize |

Thanks to a sighting report on HeritageUnits.com, I knew CSX's "Spirit of Mulberry" unit was eastbound on the Paynesville Sub. Sure enough, at about 2:18 P.M. on a gray, blustery March Wendesday afternoon, I made my own catch of this unit. The CSX celeb was trailing power on an eastbound grain train. |

DME 6093-Front |
| Description: |
Front view of this ex-CP DM&E unit now back on the roster of its former owner. Unit was stored in a string of older units at the Pig's Eye diesel shop. I remember seeing the ex-CP units in action during the time I lived in Rochester during the fall of 2001. |
