Скачать или смотреть -BNSF Street running in Minneapolis- Coal Train in the Streets!

Back in 2008 Excels Riverside Plant was still getting coal on a daily basis, which involved an interesting move along the street and sidewalk. Crews would shove three or four cuts of coal about a half mile into the plant, before grabbing the empties and going back to Northtown Yard. This neat little operation ended in April of 2009 when the plant switched over to natural gas. This was one of the rare and unique areas with street running in the Twin Cities. While the rails remain in place to this day, the tracks sit quiet, unused, and slowly rusting away.
