The coaling tower served not only the mainline to the west, but the small engine service facility in the wye between the mainline and the Peoria branch.
In the aerial photo, the coaling tower is near the left along the top. Note the small roundhouse.
Also note a Hennepin Canal Lock in the lower-right corner of the aerial photo.
