Western Railroad Discussion > A Damp Cold Blustery Rainy Day On The BNSF

It was a raw cold blustery rainy day in Ritzville, WA on the BNSF Lakeside Sub with a gusty high-low of 46-38 and .42 of rain. It wasn't a good day for trackside picture taking. Here are some of the bavkyard catches of the day.

1. BNSF EMD 8553 on the point of WB 852am manifest train in the rain. Sorry about the electrical cord. I was trying to stay dry, lol, and I like EMD units.
2. WB 925am manifest train with EMD's BNSF 9278-9169 on the point with DPU.
3. Another shot of same power.
