Remarks & Notes 
After just cresting the hill in the background the 11am loads start down hill with a raw ore train for Silver Bay. Two and a half weeks after I took this photo Cleveland Cliffs would announce the shut down of the Mine in Babbit and the Plant in Silver Bay for the 2013 season. If demand returns the line will reopen in 2013 but at this time it does not sound so good, Cliffs also announced they would be closing the Empire mine in Michigan for good. The story can be found here. http://www.duluthnewstribune.com/event/article/id/250262/
