Viewing Album:  1960's Time Capsule
 
By:Steve J Rush
Dates:1/1/1965 - 1/1/1972
Album Info:The only thing about opening a time capsule and "Returning to Yesterday" is that the things that you might find there, are perhaps at best, only good for a limited number of people! As to why this might be, About these things I do not know and I can not say, except that Some people will understand and Some people will not! This is just the way it is! Some people dream a different dream--- because they have been told a different story. Thus they see things, in a different way. Some of these pictures I have not looked at or seen in over 40 years! They were taken in the middle to late 1960's by the young stallion that I once was back in those days when I was in high school or when I was working the interlocking towers on the Milwaukee Road near St Paul Yard and the St Paul Union Depot. It will take some time to review and upload the best of the several hundred pictures that there are in this collection. A special thanks to my friend Chris who works on the Amtrak desk on the mighty BNSF. Without his help and generosity, these images as he calls them would possibly not yet have been scanned, and I would not yet be uploading them, and thus not sharing them with you! Most of the dates for these pictures will be a guess or approximation of a date within the middle to late 1960's. I remember the places, but not so much the dates.

waiting for the block to clear
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.

SOO 735
Title:  SOO 735
Description:  I remember a time when GP30s and GP35s were new! The first time that I ever saw any it was on the west end of the St Paul Union Depot! They were on a westbound Milwaukee freight train which was going either to Minneapolis and perhaps west on the H&D meaning "Hastings and Dakota" or it was waiting to follow a passenger train and then cross the Mississippi River on the joint Milwaukee/ Omaha track to the I&M meaning "Iowa and Minnesota". It was a very long time ago to remember and there was no real way for me to have known! But I do remember that trains leaving the passenger station would often see a signal that appeared as Yellow over Green which was called Approach Medium! But that was on a railroad where the signals indicated speed and not a route thru a junction or interlocking!

Extra 375 Eask
Title:  Extra 375 Eask
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 is "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!

run thru power
Title:  run thru power
Description:  Between the interlocking towers of St Anthony on the west end of the 4 track GN main and St Anthony Park on the double track NP main (not to be confused with Park Jct and the Minnesota Transfer crossing)--- I felt lucky to catch this set of run thru power on the Union Cutoff. As to why this transfer from Daytons Bluff came up the NP and then went thru the Union Cutoff at St Anthony Park instead of coming west on the GN freight mains from Westminster Tower is beyond me! So where was St Anthony Park and the Union Cutoff you ask?! Just west of the state fair grounds and Snelling Avenue where the circus trains used to unload and maybe still do today.

westbound at Hoffman Avenue
Title:  westbound at Hoffman Avenue
Description:  after leaving St Paul Yard on the westbound freight main and approaching the St Paul Union Depot still off in the distance, you can make out the Milwaukee switch engine at the "old yard" and the signal bridge at Division Street. The closer signal bridge with the approach signal is the west end of the Hoffman Avenue interlocking.

on the Milwaukee westbound freight main
Title:  on the Milwaukee westbound freight main
Description:  at Hoffman Avenue, perhaps this is the time freight south to Austin on the Iowa and Minnesota. I was able to get this picture as I was working there as the second trick tower operator/ leverman. Hoffman Avenue was a "strong arm" pipeline interlocking plant with six tracks, 3 Milwaukee on the river side and 3 Burlington on the bluff side. The Milwaukee freight mains were right hand running and the two joint track passenger mains in the middle that ran in between thus separating St Paul Yard on the Milwaukee and Daytons Bluff on the Burlington, were left hand running! I liked working there, it was a very busy place! It was my first job on the railroad.

Title:  another look close up
Description:  classic NP and maybe not seen as much as were the GP7/9s. Or at least not by me! I guess it just depended upon the part of the railroad that you were seeing at the time! In other words, different engines ran in different places, and not just anywhere at any time! Different things were in different places and so there was "a taste and a flavor" to things, and that was part of the fun of it!

Minnesota Missabe Iron Range
Title:  Minnesota Missabe Iron Range
Description:  Looking eastward towards Lake Superior, you can see the GN interlocking tower at Carlton with the train order signal showing green or Proceed in both directions. You can also see that the eastward home signal is displaying a "High Green" indicating Proceed. The eastward track is red from the many years of iron ore trains that loaded the big boats when they came calling and then tried up alongside the ore docks at Duluth. With maybe 20,000 tons or more of that which was later known as taconite, they traveled the Great Lakes to the steel mills in the east. To the right is the NP depot with not only the line west to Brainerd and Staples, but also the line to Hinckley and St Paul. It was this route south to the Twin Cities that saw passenger service as late as the middle 1960's. The GN passenger trains "the Badger and the Gopher" crossed the NP at Hinckley. This was after traveling across Wisconsin before entering Minnesota where they crossed the Kettle River at Sandstone.

Title:  Behind the pine tree
Description:  Yep, even then "they" were trying to get rid of our cabooses! But to me, the main point here is the rear end markers displaying green to the rear! Granted this line was ABS, but green to the rear says to a following train--- "I'm in the clear!"

Signals at Finlayson
Title:  Signals at Finlayson
Description:  at Finlayson looking west--- the train order signal indicates clear east and west, meaning that there are no orders from the dispatcher at this station. The ABS block signals show that there are no srains "in the block". The six foot main line switch stand shows that the switch is lined for the main track. We also know this to be true because the eastbound ABS signal says "clear block"! There might not be any trainp, but there is a lot here if you can read the signals and understand what it is that they are saying! Notice that the train order signal is square ended. This means that it is an absolute signaq and if it is red the meaning is stop and stay stopped unless a clearance is received. The ABS signals are pointed and if they are red then the signal is saying stop and then proceed at restricted speed! The operator could tell from these signals if an approaching train in either direction was 1 or 2 miles away. That is if the day indications of the semaphore arms were plainly visible.

Title:  Coming off the Iron Range
Description:  Once it was double track all the way to Gunn. At Brookston, the line to Kelly Lake and Hibbing departed from the Cass Lake main. Many train loads of wheat and other grain crops from northwestern Minnesota and North Dakota came this way to the elevators in Duluth and Superior.

"Extra Milw 1014 East"
Title:  "Extra Milw 1014 East"
Description:  Milw extra East from St Paul to Duluth on the Northern Pacific. Notice that the westbound ABS semaphore signal is pointed and has a number plate. If an ABS signal was dovetailed instead of pointed then that signal would be called a "distant signal" meaning that it governed the approach to a home signal located at the outer opposing limits of an interlocking. The next signal would be square ended and an absolute stop if found to be red!

Ready For Work
Title:  Ready For Work
Description:  In the minds of some people, the NP lived in the shadow of the GN. And to others, it just simply was NOT that way! Some thought that it was the "Great Northern"--- Pacific and others thought that it was the Great--- "Northern Pacific"! Was it all done and settled with the coming of the Burlington Northern merger?! Some may have though so, but to others the question is still very much alive. And so for some the debate continues!
