The Train

Down on water street just a few feet from the Mississippi River.  The bike trail ends just before the bridge and starts again just after and there is just enough space between the supports for a car and a bike.  It all looks so old and rickety it is kind of creepy riding under it when there is a train on it.

Train - downtown

I was out taking a walk and I got side tracked (bad pun) I love trains. I am even thinking about taking a train to Chicago instead of driving or flying because I think it would be nice to have a few hours of uninterrupted time to work on some projects I need to finish and I think it would be nice to not have to go to the airport and have my baggage handled.

Rail Road Crossing

Nothing to do but wait for the train.  No of course they could not build an over pass.  It is better to stop traffic in the middle of town a few times a day and let us all sit there and idle our engines until the train passes.

Train tracks

Nice and rusty.  These are the tracks that run across the Mississippi River near downtown.  The trains are all automatic so it is best to just stay out of the way.

Red Train

I keep saying I should have a lost and found category for this blog.  This is one that I took last November in San Diego.  I took so many photos while I was there I am likely to find a few more.  This makes a nice change of pace for me because there isn’t any of the white stuff in the photo.

Headed to the Mall

Route 55, the Hiawatha line, heading from downtown Minneapolis to the Mall of America.  The mall has always been a draw.  It is crowded during the holiday season even when there is a recession.

Train Graffiti

We have a law that trains that go through residential areas can only travel at about 10 miles an hour.  These tracks run along Shepard Road. I sat at the corner of Chestnut and Shepard waiting for this train to go by.  After awhile I could see the end of the train and when there were about five cars left to cross the tracks it stopped.  That was a few days ago. It could still be there.
