CB&Q in St Paul Daytons Bluff yard in 1968.
Title:  CB&Q in St Paul Daytons Bluff yard in 1968.
Description:  The CB&Q used a trio of SW switchers to run transfers up the BIG HILL in St Pa ul with the GN, NP, CNW, Soo Line and other railroad in the Twin Cities around St. Paul and Minneapolis, MN. The grade out of St. Paul is very steep and I read is as tough a grade as that in the Rocky Mountains.
