It was Sunday afternoon when I heard the Commercial working around New Brighton and then I noticed they were heading out to Fridley. So I quickly left home and caught up to them just outside of Medtronic in Fridley. |

Fresh out of the shop, and ready to roll |
| Description: |
Making one of its first trips since getting fresh paint, the 87 leads todays Belt Job out of New Brighton. The 87 is the last and final B39-8 to get the new and classy MNNR paint to date. The 87 would wait for the CN to set some cars out before heading down the line with a very long train. I like how the engineer is giving the thumbs up in the shot as well. |
