On October 1, 1979, the "Empire Builder" was rerouted to operate over the "North Coast Hiawatha"'s old route between Minneapolis and Fargo, North Dakota. With this alignment change, the "Empire Builder" dropped Willmar, Minnesota; Morris, Minnesota; and Breckenridge, Minnesota, while adding St. Cloud, Minnesota; Staples, Minnesota; and Detroit Lakes, Minnesota.
