| Description: |
@Mississippi Street once again is the St Paul- Duluth/ Superior road power!!! An Alco RS11, an Alco RS2/3 &a EMD GP7/9--- lots of different engine types here!!! i sure would have liked 2have seen them out on the road without the electric poles in the way!!! Notice the steam engine bell on the middle unit behind the diagonal number boards- the NP had class!!! |

NP 906 |
| Description: |
Mississippi Street was home to the passenger power for North Coast Limited and Mainstreeter which ran west to Seattle and also the St Paul/ Duluth freight power was serviced here--- it was a place where it was easy to find Alco RS2's/ RS3's (if you could tell the difference between them!!!). Also Alco RS 11's could often be found here--- But it is all gone now - the diesel shop and the roundhouse and "the glory of it" were torn down years ago and the land sold!!! If you went there today you would have no idea of what was once there--- many things have changed!!! |

Extra 375 East |
| Description: |
having arrived from the west perhaps as far as Mandan on the Yellowstone Division, here are a pair of NP road switchers with the new simplified paint scheme. Was it "classic NP"?! Not for me, no it was not! But the times they were a changing, as so it was noted in a song by Bob Dylan who was born in Duluth! Most people think or believed that the NP was double track west of the Twin Cities. But that is only partly true. Between Northtown (University Avenue) and St Cloud, it was joint double track with the GN owning the eastward track! |

| Description: |
for whatever reason, we tended to see more of the NP in Duluth than the GN in Superior! Why?! I dont know, it just was how it was and how it happened "in those days"! |
