Duluth Winnipeg & Pacific Ry.

DWP takes a system-wide look at the Duluth Winnipeg & Pacific. Located in the beautiful arrowhead region of northeastern Minnesota, the railroad starts at the Pokegama yard near Superior, Wisconsin and travels 165 miles north to a connection with CN North America at Ranier, Minnesota. The action includes: mainline freights, yard switching, transfers and a cab ride on DW&P #5906. Plus a look back to the 1970’s when RS11 Alcos powered the trains with footage at Virginia and the west Duluth yard and tunnel. See connecting Railroads of: CN North America, Duluth MIssabe & Iron Range, Burlington Norhtern, Soo Line, Chicago & North Western, Wisconsin Central, and the MInnesota Dakota & Western. At International Falls you’ll see the MD&W switching their yard and making a transfer to the DW&P using their rare Alco S2 diesels. Slides by William Eley, RS11 footage by Ben Imbertson, cassette box pics by Dennis Pehoski and Dan Plets. Footage era 1989-1994.
