UP 1498
Title:  UP 1498
Description:  I had planned to go to the Mankato Library, which was located by the tracks just to read the paper and hope a train would come by. I got bored of waiting so I left the library and went to the old depot to wait for some action. Still, nothing. I spotted this locomotive parked in the grain mill yard. I walked a few blocks over to get pictures of it and it was well worth the walk. I think this engine would look better without the patches however.

Title:  UP 6430 near the old station
Description:  Sorry for the bad quality. I took this photo with my phone. I have no idea what this was doing here, for one UP never runs one locomotive trains and I thought this looked like the DPU usually seen on trains that run through here. So if anyone could provide any info as to why this train was just here let me know.
