Western Railroad Discussion > Hot and Humid Today On The BNSF

It was another miserable hot and humid day in Ritzville, WA on the BNSF Lakeside Sub with a high-low of 96-77 and a few drips of rain which resulted in heavy humidity, UGH. Traffic was only three trains since before 8am to 430pm, maybe a possible work window. I'm told there will be a parade of trains WB this evening, maybe something interesting will go by. Here a few trains from late yesterday afternoon and the three that have run so far today. There was a fourth that just came by EB another Orange manifest.

1. WB 416pm intermodal train with BNSF 6744-1065 on the point.
2. WB 553pm intermodal train with BNSF 4821 and NS 8988 on the pull.
3. Another distance shot of NS 8988.
