Western Railroad Discussion > Methane makes an unexpected stop at FrostDate: 10/29/14 08:36 Methane makes an unexpected stop at Frost Author: milepost180 Yesterday GGG and I decided to do some Railfanning at Frost. We averaged a train every 12 minutes. Not bad. This consist appeared and was slowing to a stop. He had a flashing yellow so I was somewhat puzzled. To my surprise the methane train made a quick stop for inspection before continuing WB. I apologize for some of the shots as I ended up with my EF 100-400 and no way to retrieve my 24-70.

Nice job EMD/BNSF

LPG is Liquid Propane, this is LNG Liquified Natural Gas(primarily Methane). The two trailing SD70ACe locomotives are modified to run on LNG, the lead GE is just a diesel. |
