Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range Railway Steam Power

The Missabe's steam power fleet was geared to move iron ore from the mines to the docks in Duluth & Two Harbors, with a couple of mixed freights and passenger trains thrown in. Hence the railroad ran some burly power in the form of Santa Fe's, ex-Bessemer & Lake Erie 2-10-4s, ex-Union Railroad 0-10-2s, the huge Yellowstones and the largest 10-coupled switcher.
Almost all of the images were scanned from original 2x4 negatives. The time period is mostly the mid-to-late 1950s and in locations such as Proctor, Two Harbors, Virginia and Mitchell Yard.
