User:Mulad/Desired images

This is a list of articles where images (or more appropriate ones) would be really great to have:

Stations
Track diagrams would also be great for stations
 * Minneapolis Great Northern Depot
 * The Saint Paul Union Depot article could use an image from when trains were running up until 1971, or at least a better shot of the concourse leading out to the tracks.

Active railroads and subsidiaries
''Many of these don't have any images. New or updated route maps would also be helpful.''
 * Airlake Terminal Railway
 * Cedar River Railroad
 * Cloquet Terminal Railroad
 * Duluth, Missabe and Iron Range Railway
 * Duluth, Winnipeg and Pacific Railway
 * Iowa Interstate Railroad – has a shot, but it's at a poor angle looking up at a bridge
 * Minnesota Commercial Railway – has a shot, but it's an obstructed view
 * Minnesota, Dakota and Western Railway
 * Minnesota Northern Railroad
 * Minnesota Prairie Line, Inc.
 * Minnesota Southern Railway
 * Northern Lines Railway
 * Northern Plains Railroad
 * Otter Tail Valley Railroad
 * Red River Valley and Western Railroad
 * Soo Line Railroad – has an image, but at a poor angle (and with a fairly dirty locomotive)

Defunct railroads and interurbans/streetcars

 * Electric Short Line Railway – "Luce Line"
 * Minneapolis, Anoka & Cuyuna Range Railroad and related companies
 * Minneapolis, Lyndale and Lake Calhoun Railway – "Motor Line"
 * St. Paul & Pacific Railroad – earliest predecessor to Great Northern, started operation in 1862
 * Winona and St. Peter Railroad – also started operation in 1862

Bridges

 * Stone Arch Bridge back when it was carrying trains.
 * Northern Pacific Bridge Number 9 from when it carried train traffic

Named trains

 * Better shots of the Empire Builder:
 * More iconic photo for Amtrak (possibly in the mountainous west or along the Mississippi River near Lake City, Minnesota)
 * A better view of the train back in the Great Northern era that shows locomotives. A tail-end view of the train might also be nice if it was running with an observation car.
 * Chicago, Burlington and Quincy Railroad's Twin Cities Zephyr:
 * Images showing the evolution of the locomotives from slant-nose to bull-nose would be nice. A side-on view showing the articulation in early trains would also be excellent.
 * Milwaukee Road's Twin Cities Hiawatha (aka Hiawatha, Morning Hiawatha, Afternoon Hiawatha):
 * The train was orange, so color photos would be desired.
 * Good shots with streamlined locomotives in front, both steam and diesel would be good.
 * Images showing the evolution of the observation cars into skytop lounge would be excellent (there is a beavertail image, but others would also be good).
 * Amtrak also ran a train they called the Twin Cities Hiawatha, which may also be interesting.
 * Chicago and North Western Railway's Twin Cities 400
 * A shot of the early heavyweight steam version of the train would be good.
 * A shot of a drumhead from the steam train era with "The “400”" printed on it.
 * A shot of a streamlined diesel train somewhere, particularly with the locomotives included. Color would be desired, since it was yellow and green.

Bus providers

 * Metro Transit – We need a picture of the "BRT" livery (yellow front, yellow/blue swooshes on side)
 * U of M Campus Shuttle
 * Minnesota Valley Transit Authority
 * SouthWest Transit
 * Plymouth Metrolink
 * Maple Grove Transit
 * Scott County Transit
 * Metro Mobility

Routes/stations/transitways

 * List of Metro Transit routes – Popular bus routes could use images. Photos taken at signature locations along the routes (e.g., the 16 at the U of M or state capitol, the 84 in Highland Park or at Rosedale, the 5 at the Midtown Exchange transit center, etc.) would be best.
 * Since these mostly only appear as thumbnails (though they should be zoomable), files can be relatively small (1 to 4 megapixels would probably be appropriate)
 * U of M Transitway
 * I-35W Bus Rapid Transitway
 * Particularly 46th Street/Kingfield station
