Dieselized street car to shuttle employees. You gotta love that sort of creative thinking. I've often said that, if you look around long enough, you can find a railroad prototype for just just about anything.

Yes, it was quite the creative repurposing for that streetcar. The DM&IR was always known for being an efficient and resourceful railroad. We have to wonder where this idea came from. Perhaps similar personnel shuttles were in use up at the mines? Thank you for the comment.

Amazing video! Love that coverage of the D&NE in Cloquet and Saginaw too! Sure has changed since then!

Thank you very much!!! And yes, the D&NE had a fascinating little operation. We’re grateful that Mr. Niles had the foresight to capture it before everything changed. We appreciate the comment.

We did a few years ago, and that video is on KZbin, but you probably already know that.

@@CVisionProductions1 yea I saw that one . Pretty awesome , what about like a 2024 revisit or something like that

We won’t rule it out! Thanks again for the suggestion. Most of the videos in line for the rest of the year will feature older footage.
