State Line Taconite

BNSF 6215 leads a loaded taconite train weaving between Minnesota and Wisconsin east of Wrenshall on the BNSF Lakes Subdivision at the aptly named location of State Line. Historically speaking, the Great Northern and Northern Pacific had a diamond crossing near this spot on the Minnesota - Wisconsin border with an interlocking tower. As the train comes around the outside of the curve here, the front end is in Minneota while the middle and rear are in Wisconsin.
