Turning around from the other shot, this is looking west towards downtown N. St. Paul with Hwy 36 to the right. These track once hosted Soo Line passenger trains 1,2, 5 and 6 to Chicago until the last one left on 1/15/1965. There were a couple shippers left in NSP until the end in summer 1982, when the rest of this 5 or 6 miles of track to Trout Brook Jct was removed. |
