Title:  waiting for the block to clear
Description:  Having seen these engines come into Northtown where they earlier cutoff from their train, they are now waiting for a double red signal at Park Jct. This NP tower protected the crossing with the Minnesota Transfer which headed north from their yard in the Midway to meet the Soo Line at New Brighton. This light engine was heading east to Mississippi Street in St Paul.

NP 863
Title:  NP 863
Description:  After many miles and many years of service--- having seen better days! Once again notice the steam engine bell and the diagonal number boards--- a hint of "the glory that once was" before the huge railroads of corporate America that we have today! Maybe you know what I'm saying- maybe you were also there in those days- before it become just more of the same old thing! "It's NOT the same railroad that i once knew and loved"!
