I see that some of the 2 cross arm telegraph poles are still standing. I was in Granite Falls MN in 1990-91 & the telegraph lines, searchlight block & interlocking signals, & switchman's shanties were still there. When I rode the 261 excursion " Return of the Olympian Hiawatha " between Glencoe & Olivia MN, the telegraph lines, signals, & shanties were all gone.

Wow, great footage of the event! Also, I just have to say thank you for bringing (what I assume to be) your daughter to see this magnificent event. Seeing these kinds of things as children is what inspires future scientists. This very event could be the catalyst to her writing a Ph.D. thesis in astronomy 15 years down the road!

it used to go past my house in sandstone and I would always run outside to see it.. I think BNSF may have disallowed steam on their lines.. so I have heard.

We still run on that line from time to time. We actually ran on it earlier this year to Duluth for our Spring Excursion.
