Soo Sunday Extra Transfer 8 85 switching TO&E at New Brighton

This was a very popular job to Shoreham yard with 4 geeps and 2 cabooses. Most of the time helpers were required for the climb out of Northeast Minneapolis.

Remember Walter Thomascak? Years ago I was dispatching trains for BNSF RR and he called me up on the caboose radio and talked to me. Walter was escorting a hi value load and called me up when the train was approaching Winslow Az where I was working. We visited for a few minutes and I went back to work. Walter was a fine railroader for sure.
