The Metsaborg brought wind turbine parts from Denmark to Duluth, arriving here on Sunday, May 16th. The parts, as well as 48 containers, were discharged from the ship onto shuttle trucks that moved them to another part of the Port Terminal. This week, those pieces were loaded onto railroad cars for the trip west. A nacelle is in the foreground; behind each nacelle is a cone. The train is expected to depart Thursday late afternoon or early evening, moving down the rail line just east of I35 to the Grassy Point Bridge and over to Superior. (more information)
