Remarks: Only a few days of operations remained on this historic area on Soos double track main line in Minneapolis. Add units, helpers cutting off on the fly....it was all there!! We always knew where to set up to captue the helpers cutting off but were rewarded with an additional surprise on this particular day!

Bob, You nailed it! It just doesn't get much better than that.

Loving the caboose, it's a shame those helpers have to be behind it though. Excellent video.

Great video Bob. All kinds of surprises in this one.

Whew! You couldn't plan for action like that. To catch an on the fly cut-off right in front of the camera and then have another train enter the picture too. Wow! The action was really highlighted with the actually radio communications included. Very nice video.

Amazing video!!! The sound of non-dynamic EMD's, helpers cutting-off on the fly and a Minneapolis, Northfield & Southern unit still in original livery, makes this more than a 5 star video! I give it 10! Thank you for sharing.
