The rail line of contention--View three  Contributor's Pick!       
Now we are looking towards Lake St. along the old Tootin' Louie main line. These rails had lain dormant from 1994 to 1998, when the Twin Cities & Western was re-routed onto them when the 29th Street corridor was severed by the Hiawatha Avenue/Hwy. 55 rebuild. Today it is at the center of a dispute between Minneapolis and St. Louis Park thanks to the latter city's request for the TC&W to remain here when the Southwest LRT line is built.
