About this cam

A camera run by Saint Paul's Union Depot, mounted beside its Rail View Picnic Area and facing southeast over the Division Street Wye in downtown Saint Paul, where freight trains and Amtrak's Borealis pass.

The Division Street Wye is a rail junction in downtown Saint Paul, just east of Union Depot. Union Depot describes it as part of "a dense, rail-rich area which each day carries up to 10,000 freight rail cars, or 5% of the nation's freight volume" — the operator's own figure, not a count measured at this camera.

This is the second of Union Depot's two train cams. The operator states that it "faces southeast and is mounted adjacent to the Rail View Picnic Area", a landscaped space at the far eastern edge of Union Depot's Lot D with six picnic tables covered by pergolas. Union Depot says the view shows trains moving through the area, including Amtrak's Borealis.

The picnic area is reachable on foot or by bike — from the sidewalk on the south side of Kellogg Boulevard, or the bike/pedestrian path connecting at Sibley Street and Kellogg Boulevard — with parking in Union Depot Lot D, east of the Lafayette Bridge.

What to watch for

Amtrak's Borealis, which Union Depot names for this camera, and the freight traffic the operator says runs through this part of Saint Paul — up to 10,000 freight cars a day by its own count. The camera looks southeast across two tracks of the wye toward a wooded bank. St. Paul Downtown Airport (Holman Field) is nearby, and Union Depot notes aircraft flying over the picnic area.
