This is the Mpls MN main Soo Line yard in 1969 on the NMRA tour. This is Shoreham yard with a roundhouse and backshops. Operated by the CP today. This is a curved yard with wyes on both ends.         
I was on the NMRA tour in Mpls MN in 1969. This is the main Soo Line yard in 1969. We also got to see the Milwaukee hump yard in St Paul MN and took a GN train ride from Mpls Depot to the Duluth GN ore docks on the NMRA tour. So much fun!!!
