After leaving St. Paul, we would follow the Mississippi river for about 140 miles. First on the East bank, then crossing the river at Hastings to follow the West bank. The big Red wing on the grain elevator of course announced we were at Red Wing, MN. The Station there is a real classic and has a small museum. Winona also had a neat station, and was a crew change point. We crossed the river again at LaCrosse and set out across the state of Wisconsin.
