Railroad buffs who keep watch on the Superior train yard, were surprised this week to see this lineup of "Union
Pacific coal motors" arrive with a string of empty grain hoppers for the Agrex elevator. The large engines were once
used almost exclusively for the transport of coal from the Powder River Basin of Wyoming. When built in the 1980s they
had a new design of cab and frame and came with alternating current instead of the more conventional direct current
electdc motors. The design provided for 6,000 horsepower diesel motors to ddve the electric generators but this order
of locomotives contained smaller 4,300 horsepower engines. On the next order, the engine size was increased to the
designed 6,000 horsepower. The new design offered better traction and rail adhesion and featured independent wheel
action. The locomotives are 80 feet long, have 42-inch diameter wheels and carry a 5,500 gallon supply of diesel fuel.

they want to attend and still others are
thinking about the job market. Making
plans for the future can be exciting and
stressful--for teens and parents.
Seniors have many educational and
career options to sort through as their
high school graduation date nears. Most
teens, and not just seniors, understand
that decisions made during youth will
have long-term consequences, which
adds pressure to choose the right path.
Parents play important roles in help-
ing their teens plan for the future. To
help teens set goals, parents should:
• Encourage teens to develop talents
and abilities. A'child who is a math
whiz should be encouraged take ad-
vanced math courses. Tell teens to
consider careers that use their strengths.
• Help teens choose high school
courses and college majors that will
allow them to reach their career goals.
• Tell teens to shadow a professional
in their field of interest. Teens should
find out why the professionals enjoy
their work and how they became suc-
cessful.
• Take an attitude assessment.
Adults' beliefs and behaviors influ-
ence their teens' achievement. For ex-
ample; parents who dismiss the impor-
tance of science classes send a mes-
sage that science isn't important, which
diminishes teens' motivation to do well.
• Stay flexible. Teens' goals and de-
sires often change as they mature, so
their lives may change directions after
they've already made important deci-
sions. Teens who learn to think about
their options will be able to handle
these situations better than those with-
out that skill.
