3 on 1 meet at Wyoming Milwaukee Road was working closely with GT and CN at this time, as they were power short and cash short after the huge retrenchment in 1980. Merger with GT looked pretty, certain, but did things sure change the next couple years!         
Back in the 1982 to 1984 time frame, the old NP line from St. Paul to Hinckley MN was actually busier than the GN line through Cambridge many days. The CNW and Milwaukee Road ran 2 or 3 trains each way a day, and here we have 3 northbound trains passing a southbound Milwaukee Road train.
