Minnesota Northstar Commuter Train

Northstar commuter trains began operating between Big Lake and Minneapolis, Minnesota on November 16th, 2009. The service is provided by the Twin Cities' Metro Transit and BNSF Railway is contracted to run the trains. In this video, we will follow the Northstar on a typical run into Minneapolis and then return to Big Lake. We'll see notable sites along the way and visit a few of the Northstar stations. #commuterline #minnesota #trains This video was made possible by my supporters on Patreon: Beyond Aviation Ben Edrich Callum McNamara Clarence Jackson Hayden M Jackson Gorski Jim Walker John S Greene Jovanni Cruz Lachlan B.
