Well an exaggeration for sure ... but maybe on a short line ?   ; ^ )

Now that's what I call a freight house!  Wonder how many cars could be spotted there at the same time?  Thanks for sharing.

That would look like a bit of fun to spot cars.
I can only imagine how much freight went through that place

That pic's a warm fuzzy. Recognized it immediately.

I used to switch there, the Omaha's Minneapolis freight house.

Looks like this was after it was shut down, though.

Thanks for posting it.

-LD. :-)

BTW - 'Twas a hobo jungle then. Now, it's condos.
