Westbound freight (another view)
Title:  Westbound freight (another view)
Description:  At the time, I carried a disposable camera in my work truck just in case. I caught this train around 7:30 AM with a purple colored switcher unit in the lash-up, and I'm really curious to know where it's from. It looks like the number on it is 1206, but I can't read the letters because the clarity of the shot is so bad. (date is an approximation)

Q626
Title:  Q626
Description:  I've seen a lot of new and odd things out here lately.........."new" trains and new symbols........westbounds with even-numbered symbols, etc. I swear I heard these guys call this the Q626 when they called the signals. The Q626 is almost always mixed-freight, today it's running earlier than usual (12:41) and is nothing but auto-racks!

Q351

Q382
Title:  Q382
Description:  At 08:30 this morning the angle of the sun was just about perfect for catching eastbounds at this location. Here is the Q382 with a switcher in the lash-up, something that's kind of typical with the Q626.........so it was a nice surprise to see it in this train today!

Q380
Title:  Q380
Description:  The power for CSX train Q380 has cut-off and left the consist behind on track 2 of the main. After clearing the interlocking, they'll move into the Belle Isle siding and leave the two CSX engines for to power an ethanol train that's tied down there. I'm assuming then (since I did'nt stay to watch the entire move) the "pumpkins" will move back out to the main, hook-up to the train they left behind and continue their trip to Selkirk.

BNSF 6877
Title:  BNSF 6877
