Came across this interesting photo. I have a great liking for older switchers. I wonder what the Cloquet Terminal Ry does. Looks like its just a bit west of Duluth.

My knowledge of the Cloquet Terminal is fairly limited as I was only in Cloquet once, but my understanding is that they are what remains of the former Duluth and Northeastern Railway. Today all they really do is switch the paper mill in Cloquet. From my experience they are a harder railroad to find out working, as they go to work early in the morning, run from the engine house to the mill (less than a mile) and then pretty much disappear into the plant for quite a while to do their switching.
