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!!! |
