Just another of many great takes on this scene as Alco S6 151 and our little train rolls east down Brown St. past the open trunk of a sedan and a cart full of groceries.
As cool as the scene is on the lower end of Brown Street past Kuppy's Diner, the bank and the post office I feel I was more enchanted with the upper end closer to interchange. I think it was because of the two small blocks of alley running and then skirting the parking lot of Karn's Grocery. While arguably less photogenic it was much more "alive" with customers coming in and out of the lot and store and startled traffic dodging the train all while customers went about their morning chore of loading groceries into their vehicles. The scene was just so much more dynamic and lively to me, changing by the moment. And the genuine curiosity and interest (or in some cases disinterest or disdain) of the general public as to what was happening and what we were doing was fun to just observe.

I saw this idea in a video of lockdown photo ideas to try. In the video he had a drum from an old washing machine and was able to set up the photo outside so was able to get a much wider angle of view, showing much more of the inside of the drum. Mine is done in my in situ machine - and it doesn't have the necessary depth either using a wide angle lens or even with my smaller Panasonic camera.

The Home Front - out and about in Plymouth, Micro 4/3 camera. I'm interested in how much of a filmic quality you can get with these little cameras, 10 or more years old and still going strong.
IC #6252 and company are almost finished dumping their fresh loads of taconite on Dock 6 as the sky's pinks and purples fade to dark blues and the lights across the harbor in Superior begin to twinkle. The dock loads ships via a conveyor belt system or gravity-feed; the conveyor belt system can load 10,000 tons of iron ore pellets onto a ship per hour. With marine shipping closed for the winter season though, the taconite will get added to the massive stockpiles (frame left) and get shipped out in the spring when the harbor opens up again.
Of the six docks, the first was originally built on the Superior side of the harbor in 1892. The Duluth Mesabi & Northern Railway built their first wooden ore dock here the next year in 1893. As ore mining exploded on the Mesabi Iron Range into the next decade, the railroad built larger and more advanced ore docks to accommodate the steam freighters that were increasing in size.
By World War One, there were four ore docks almost a half-mile long operating here alongside smaller docks for receiving coal and limestone. The adjacent and inactive Dock 5 was built back 1914 while Dock 6 was indeed the sixth and final dock built at this location in 1918. Over time, the smaller, wooden ore docks were retired and deconstructed while the steel docks remained.
To the very far right is CN's Hallett Dock, used for both outgoing and incoming cargos. Various products are handled here from bentonite clay and limestone, both used in the taconite production process.
