Western Railroad Discussion > Orange Day After the Blue Parade Of Days Past

It was a cooler day in Ritzville, WA on the BNSF Lakeside Sub with a high-low of 63-39. It was an all Orange day so far as of 520pm, except for on green and cream unit. Tomorrow will probably be a colorful day. The new camera arrived and have been experimenting with it. Unfortunately all the trains looked alike today, but at least I could read their numbers. Here' some of the trains that rolled thru the backyard today.

1. EB 1151am manifest train with BNSF 5317-4977-5322 on the point.
2. EB 12noon ballast work train with solo BNSF 4998 on the pull with DPU.
3. WB 1229pm coal train with BNSF 5719 on the very point.

That should be it for this all Orange day. There were other trains today, but they were all the same as the posted train. Hope everyone has a great evening and thanks so much for looking!
