Have a nice evening everyone and thanks so much for looking! Larry Date: 10/24/14 04:37 Re: Another Nice Rainy Day On Ther BNSF Author: funnelfan Unfortunately the ultimate catch of the day likely arrived down there after dark. There was a Port Townsend bound Crude Oil train with two NS units on the point and the Illinois Terminal SD70ACE heritage NS unit as the lone DPU. I missed it myself as it went through Cheney around 5pm.
