NORTHERN PACIFIC IOTIVE POWER--NO- 5 OF A SERIESCLASS S—10 (320-329)

In this age of Diesel-electric streamliners and fast 125-—carfreight trains, it is very refreshing to come across a touch ofold—time railroading, such as exists on the Sixth Subdivision ofthe Lake Superior Division. Daily except Sunday, a mixed trainpowered byasmall ten-wheeler, leaves Rush City for the round tripto Grantsburg, Vlisc., crossing the St. Croix River on the oldestof N. P. bridges, and traveling on light 56-—pound rail. At Q'ants—burg the engine is turned on one of the few remaining "Armstrong"turntables. The photograph, made April '7, 1950, shows EngineerWalter Ebel in the cab of the 328, which is being turned manuallyby Cmdr. Robert Wilcox, his brakeman and fireman.

It is doubtful if such picturesque railroad scenes can befound anywhere at this late stage of the game. Probably they willbe short—lived as the 328 is due to be dismantled and applicationhas been made for the abandonment of the Grantsburg branch. Aninteresting sidelight of the abandonment is the fact that BrakemanJack Hurray, whose father rode the first train over the branch 67years ago, will probably work on the last run.

To KEEP ‘Eu ROLLING higine 338 has been very much in the limelight lately, having1-he 1-dine eene, the ¢,empe;-e- powered the last train on the Taylors Falls branch in 1949. This
