The daily yard check has been going on for years.

The Minnesota Historical Society has a yard book from the M&StL at
Northfield, Minn that has all this information, including car
destination and what cars were forwarded during the day, and most
time
the train the were forwarded on.

If the yard book is from Northfield then the railroad is not M&StL. If
the RR is M&StL then the town is not Northfield. The M&StL did not
serve Northfield, MN. Could you mean Minneapolis, Northfield &
Southern?
Gene Green
No, I said the M&StL and M&StL is correct. The date however is back in the 1880's prior to the takeover by what would become the CGW.
