With the decline of coal all across America, seeing a coal train racing along the tracks is slowly becoming a thing of the past. In the Minneapolis/Saint Paul area, we have ONE coal power plant left, and that is the Allen S. King power plant located in Bayport.
We'll follow a number of Bayport Coal trains as they work their way from Saint Paul, along the Altoona Sub, and towards the power plant in Bayport. Since this video was shot in all seasons, we can see what this line is like at all times of year. From manned helpers shoving hard on the rear, switch action at Bayport, The Robert Street Lift Bridge, and much more, this video has a bit of it all!
