Talk:Dan Patch Corridor

Dan Patch Line separate page from Dan Patch Corridor

There is enough information to separate the Dan Patch Line from the Dan Patch Corridor. Any history on this page should be moved and combined with the Dan Patch Line page.

One problem with the history on this page is that it is somewhat misleading, it neglects to mention that the line origianlly ran through Bloomington and Richfield and stopped at 54th and Nicollet (then Minneapolis' city limits). Later on in 1913, construction began on a 15-mile track extension through the western suburbs of Edina and St. Louis Park.

Merge with the MNS Ry. page?

The Dan Patch Corridor history section should be merged either into the Dan Patch Line article or the circa-2005 Minneapolis, Northfield and Southern Railway page, which can cover the history of the Minneapolis, St. Paul, Rochester and Dubuque Electric Traction Company as part and parcel. In fact, perhaps all three articles should be merged, with the MnDOT study under a subheading, until there's more substance about the Dan Patch Corridor.

You're correct about the original routing, and the line (served by Progressive Rail northeast of Auto Club Junction) still exists as far as 59 1/2th and Pillsbury. North of there, Twin Cities Rapid Transit took over the original line as far as 60th and Nicollet, though I'd have to check the book Electric Railways of Minnesota by Russ Olson for specifics.
