BNSF 5373 and buds....... |
Description: |
Well, we did not beat the inspection vehicle back into Elsberry. We fSund him sitting at the car wash. As we headed for our refueling stop, we see headlights of this guy, which we took after our stop. But they are not alone on this section of track, between Elsberry, and MO-M......By the way, the lead unit here sounded much like a steam engine at rest!! |

If they wait a couple more months......those hoppers will come in handy. |
Description: |
With all the rain, the beans are doing well. This train is on hold, split into 3 sections, so that it does not block Hwy H or Ell Rd in St Charles Co, MO. And I do not know how long it has been sitting here, since the K Line has been shut down since about 7-7, due to flooding. |
