Light Rail Through Here? |
| Description: |
This is the Kenilworth Corridor near downtown Minneapolis. In a few years light rail may be built here going to Eden Prairie. Taken at the 21st Street crossing, which will have its own station. Doesnt look like the best place to build a high frequency light rail line, but thats just my opinion. |

Whats left of Kenwood Yard |
| Description: |
This used to be a rail yard for CNW, ex M&StL before being abandoned in the 1980s. Hennepin County purchased the right-of-way for future light rail use, but has let TC&W and other freight traffic continue to use it. Although light rail wouldve been better through Uptown, its better than no light rail, plus the freight traffic will remain.
