westbound at Hoffman Avenue
Title:  westbound at Hoffman Avenue
Description:  after leaving St Paul Yard on the westbound freight main and approaching the St Paul Union Depot still off in the distance, you can make out the Milwaukee switch engine at the "old yard" and the signal bridge at Division Street. The closer signal bridge with the approach signal is the west end of the Hoffman Avenue interlocking.

on the Milwaukee westbound freight main
Title:  on the Milwaukee westbound freight main
Description:  at Hoffman Avenue, perhaps this is the time freight south to Austin on the Iowa and Minnesota. I was able to get this picture as I was working there as the second trick tower operator/ leverman. Hoffman Avenue was a "strong arm" pipeline interlocking plant with six tracks, 3 Milwaukee on the river side and 3 Burlington on the bluff side. The Milwaukee freight mains were right hand running and the two joint track passenger mains in the middle that ran in between thus separating St Paul Yard on the Milwaukee and Daytons Bluff on the Burlington, were left hand running! I liked working there, it was a very busy place! It was my first job on the railroad.
