Northbound limestone train at Adolph, Minnesota. Tri-Lights on the gantry are already in service.

September 2006 on the DM&IR, and the new ownership is already making inroads. Fortunately, tunnel motors look pretty good in black and red. Adolph is located just north of operating hub Proctor Yard, and is at the junction of the line down to Pokey Yard, as it is known to the crews. The southbound searchlight signal is possibly just hours away from being cut-over to the solid state tri-lights.
