#2 is Linden Hills Blvd & Queen, this is now the site of the MSM Car Barns.
#3 is just north of #2
#25 I don't think this is Twin Cities, I know of two Steeple Cabs in the Twin Cities
TCRT Power Plant in Minneapolis that was third rail powered and Central Warehouse in St. Paul which I am pretty sure was a trolley pole operation.

I stand corrected, #25 is the Central Warehouse Locomotive.
