Album Info:all photos between Shakopee and Cologne on the line that once started at the CMO main in shakopee, came up on the swing bridge, crossed the currently burned down trestle, went through chaska, went into carver, crossed the large trestle over broadway, went over county 11, and came up on the east side of cologne by county 36. It merged into the currently TCWR line. All tracks have been removed, and a portion of this line from by the swing bridge to shakopee is a trail. All other parts are just abanond railbeds.
