as the sun rises and another 3rd trick begins to end for the leverman/ telegraph operator at Hoffman Avenue, this is the view that I had looking east towards Daytons Bluff and St Paul Yard. The Milwaukee freight mains were right hand running and the two center tracks were the passenger mains and they were left hand running! It was a busy and interesting place to work! The cement company in the middle of the picture and the grain terminal that loaded river barges, were served by the St Paul Bridge and Terminal or in this case it was known to most people as the CGW! The 3 right hand tracks towards the river were Milwaukee and the 3 left hand tracks towards the bluff belonged to the Burlington. |
