Paused At Lyndale |
| Description: |
The Progressive Rail's Dan Patch Line crew apparently paused in the middle of their work, shut the 34 and 36 down, and "went for beans" (i.e., lunch) by the time I showed up and captured my latest portrait of the Dan Patch Line duo. |

Photo location is at the west 96th street grade crossing along the maze of industrial tracks jutting off of the old Minneapolis, Northfield, and Southern "high line" west if 35W. |

The Illusion Of An Approaching Train |
| Description: |
The PGR 36 waits on the west side of the 35W bridge on a gorgeous early afternoon in late April. It was sitting unmanned due to the PGR's "push/pull" operations on the line utilizing units at each end of their trains. At this moment the crew was using PGR 34 to switch their freight house, leaving the 36 to create the illusion of an oncoming train down at the bridge. I still kept my distance regardless. Better safe than sorry, folks. |

| Title: |
Ghost From The Past |
| Description: |
Progressive Rail 36, a Minneapolis, Northfield, and Southern veter`n, has been back on old home rails for years as motive power on PGR's Dan Patch Line--the former MN&S "Hi Line." Here the engine is north of 86th Street while the crew aboard swithhes hoppers stored on the spur for the closed mill (?) off 86th. Save for the new name and modern additions, the 36 is a ghost from the MN&S's past. |
