A stack train, not the usual coal trains, on the BNSF main over top of the UP mains
5. UP 5688 with JE hoppers heading back to the PRB, just west of Gibbon, NE 6. UP 6850, along with a CNW unit, with an EB ethanol at Lexington Lothar Date: 12/15/12 19:41 Re: Trip through KS and NE in Mid-November Author: lotharb 7. UP 6259, the lone DPU with UP loads at Cozad, NE
8. EB UP Z-train just west of Cozad 9. Coal loads at Maxwell, NE Lothar Date: 12/15/12 19:46 Re: Trip through KS and NE in Mid-November Author: lotharb 10. AEPX hoppers headed west at Maxwell

In #9, it looks like a train on the far left track would not clear the Yellow/Red Board the track have set up. Were the last two, coming in to North Platte, shot from US 30?

As always your photos are great.
