Graffiti-strewn Brickhouse & Chair

This is my favorite picture from the day of shooting on the Hiawatha Rail Corridor. This abandoned little brick office sits between two elevators. Despite it's situation, it's held it's own. In fact, it politely invites you to rest in it's mello-yello deluxe laundromat-style chair. So pull up a mello-yello chair and celebrate, it's my birthday.

Minneapolis Railroad Graffiti

The  rail main lines carry big drag-freight of coal and lumber in new rolling stock, but Minneapolis has many small transload lines too that use old, beat-up cars that have definitely seen better days. I was delighted to find an old Chicago Northwestern car peaking out between to equally Graffiti-encrusted cars. A lot of the old branch lines around here have been cut or go nowhere and just end up being storage for these old hulks which is good news for us graffiti hunters. Note* Please, if you're inspired to go hunting, never step between parked rail-cars, I leaned in for this shot, but did not step in. If a switcher bumps the line of cars, you could suffer serious injury, these babies weight around 80,000 lbs empty!

Minnesota Commercial Approaches

The Minnesota Commercial Railroad is a local Transload line that handles loads from the Hiawatha Corridor (shown here) to Fridley and the Twin Cities Arsenal. For you hard-core train nuts, have I got a deal for you! The Minnesota Commercial Railroad is selling an old EMD 567 Engine. She's a fixer-upper, but imagine putting a 1350 horse-power motor in the middle of your living room — one heck of a conversation starter. Check out that track; it's fun to watch a 250-ton yard switcher lazily wobble down these mangled rails.
