We are standing on the former Minneapolis & St. Louis main line a block or two south of Lake Street. We are looking southwest towards where the line starts to curve as it heads for where it is spliced into the former Milwaukee Road in the vicinity of Bass Lake and Elevator yards in St. Louis Park. Whether or not freight trains will still roll here has become a bone of contention between the Water City and The Park thanks to the Southwest LRT line being slated to come through here. |
