Western Railroad Discussion > Clovis Sub last week

Continuing my trip to NM last week.....
1. After checking in on my Clovis customer, I headed west and stopped at West Clovis to catch this grain train, rolling up to the signals, with CSX and UP in tow. The KCS on the right is the lone DPU of a southbound Ferromex train
2. Everything was quite stacked up on the Clovis Sub between Clovis and Fort Sumner, as evidenced by this stack, holding at Taiban, with another WB Z stopped right behind (far right)
3. Definitely worthy of a stop on the highway, with BNSF 8301 and 215 sandwiching the 4416.

4. On the move west towards Fort Sumner
5. BNSF 6660 rounding the curve on the east side of Vaughn, with a WB grain waiting to cross the fill at Vaughn
6. BNSF 4163 brings up the rear of 4X2 powered 9,510' Long Beach - Logistics Park stack, just east of MP 851, one of my fav spots in the Abo area

7. Hot on the heals of the Super-stack, BNSF 7050 leads this Z-train past the same spot
8. WB grain I saw in Vaughn, rolls downhill past the Z
9. Full view of the grain train

Great set that brings back fond memories of my trip out there last April.

Great views. That Warbonnet "sandwich" is really cool!
