When trains LEAVE tracks
Author: LarryDoyle

Usually, we think of trains running ON tracks.

But, after the weekends 14" snowfall in St Paul, the MNNR LEFT tracks of it's own making.

I'm just amazed how it managed to jump the road like that.

Until it freezes up solid overnight and starts parting air hoses.
UDE's in the snow don't sound too fun to me!

Nice series of photos. My friends always make fun of me chasing trains--they say it's too easy because they leave tracks. Be sure to carry a couple of air hose gaskets on your lantern handle in this cold weather.

It must have been a train. The groomed earth between the lines rules out a pair of snow snakes or unicyclists traveling abreast, or someone doing a long wheelie in a bariatric wheelchair.
