Western Railroad Discussion > Rain Rain On The BNSF

It was an old fashioned rainy day in Ritzville, WA on the BNSF Lakeside Sub with a high-low of 53-46 and .45 of rain sofar. With it being rainy and dark today, it was a tough picture taking day. Had to do fast grab shots from the covered patio because of the steady rain. Here are my catches of the day with rain drops falling on my head at times, lol.

1. WB 901am oil train with BNSF 4157-6132 on the point with DPU and a friendly toot-toot from the hogger. It's nice that many trains toot-toot by the house everyday and night. Makes me feel like I'm still working, lol.
2. DPU's BNSF 4423-H1 1047 on same train.
3. WB 931am oil train with BNSF 3856-6508 on the pull with DPU and friendly toot-toots from the hogger.

I ran across the geotrain down at Roosevelt Friday morning, heard they went to Wishram then down the Oregon Trunk. I remember seeing the BNSF 8787/CitiRail/MAC grainer at Vancouver, WA then late Friday night in Centrallia.
