Trolley Loop - Second Half

What formerly was the volunteer parking lot slowly gives way to the loop track. The paving has been scraped away , the loop surveyed and work begins.
It should make for an intersting contrast when the streetcar goes around the loop and one of the largest diesel engines is the backdrop. Also shown is a really big snow thrower from the UP.
The balast base has been laid down and brand new ties are positioned to receive the rail.
