There is no longer any doubt in my mind that you are my favorite railfan/foamer of all time. Your drone shots are always good, sometimes great, and a few select ones are truly stunning...works of art even. All of your camera work and the angles you shoot are so good and fun to watch. And as an added bonus, your narration is both humorous and interesting. Keep it up!!

There were no crews in Willmar to get these trains, so they were sent this route as Superior had a surplus of crews. Amtrak and a few other Z trains were rerouted on the Wayzata/Morris/Moorhead, leaving the terminal depleted of crews for the trains shown in this video.

Nice! Although it's a daily run csx i146 (north Baltimore ohio to Columbus ohio bulk intermodel) Which heads to ridgeway on one amongst the many lines to toledo. South from ridgeway is the scottslawn sub named so due to connecting to the fertilizer plant. Beforehand I had next to never seen anything on these lines despite there up to ten trains per day due to most of these being early morning or later night runs. However one day I was heading back west from Columbus noticing a headlight on the high Iron visible from interstate route 33 near the cemetery at oakdale apon getting to the crossing the gates drop down to guard for i146. The leading unit isn't great just another es44ac however I never thought I'd see anything in that area let alone a high priority intermodel

What is absolutely insane to think about for me and the BNSF derailment that happened is that it could have possibly been a lot worse. Very few if any people have noticed this but that day's eastbound Empire Builder was running about 3 hours late, the only reason it was late was because of a freight train that had mechanical issues in Chester, Montana. What's insane is that if you do the math, if the Empire Builder was running on time it would have been in a 10-mile proximity to where the derailment happened, it could have been the Amtrak instead of that intermodal, I thank god and his angles, because I do not think this is a coincidence.

I'm curious where you got the 14 years since the last stack train. I live on the Brainerd Sub and I have seen stack trains about every 2 to 3 years usually due to an incident or track work on the Staples Sub. It definitely became more unusual after the double tracking was restored between Big Lake and St Cloud. You are correct the southern detour is by far the preferred route but even the Empire Builder made an appearance or two on the northern detour (last time about 2002). I doubt we'll ever see that again with the Brainerd Sub being dark territory except at the passing sidings and Amtrak's reluctance to running through a no PTC area.
