The Creek, Coon Creek Junction

Coon Creek Junction sits in the northern Minneapolis suburb of Coon Rapids, Minnesota. This spot offers an awesome display of railroading any railfan will enjoy!

Coon Creek is a point where the Burlington Northern Santa Fe's Staples Sub from Minneapolis to Fargo, comes together with the Hinckley Sub from Minneapolis to the Twin Ports of Duluth and Superior. Besides BNSF trains, the Hinckley Sub also sees traffic from Canadian Pacific (ex-Soo Line), Union Pacific (ex-C&NW), and Canadian National.

Enjoy many types of trains with a wide variety of motive power at one of the Twin Cities busiest railroading spots!

Chris, I own this video and three others from C Vision (Both "Crossing the Cornbelt" videos and "The Cowboy Lines". These are very well-produced videos, and are just as good as the Pentrex videotapes. Thanks for posting this!
