Switching Amidst Industry |
| Description: |
The PGR crew has pulled ahead on a switching move south of 86th Street. I do not know if they were switching an industry, or sorting out stored cars. The industry in the background provides a swell backdrop for the two locomotives whose paint schemes are virtually identical to that used by the Minneapolis, Northfield, and Southern, which once operated this line. |

Paused At Lyndale |
| Description: |
The Progressive Rail's Dan Patch Line crew apparently paused in the middle of their work, shut the 34 and 36 down, and "went for beans" (i.e., lunch) by the time I showed up and captured my latest portrait of the Dan Patch Line duo. |

First Pic Of 2024! |

My first railfan run of 2024 took me to Progressive Rail's Dan Patch line, and the first pic was of the line's SW1500 duo down at the "shops" southwest of Lyndale Avenue on a snow-free February afternoon courtesy of a strong El Nino (though, coincidentally, a storm was destined to drop some snow the very next day!) |

In For Work? |

To my surprise, PGR 34 was parked on the spur leading into Ziegler CAT this day. Perhaps she was in awaiting work of some sort? Whatever the reason, it made for a unique photo. |

Parked Separately |
| Description: |
Usually Progressive Rail's Dan Patch Line power can be found coupled together at the open air "shops" west of Lyndale Avenue on the old Hi-Line. This mild Saturday afternoon, however, they were decoupled with PGR 34 on the spur into Ziegler CAT and PGR 36 out on the main. Perhaps the 34 was awaiting repairs of some sort? |
