Western Railroad Discussion > A parked BNSF ballast train, plus engine shuffle at LPKC

I discovered a parked BNSF Railway ballast train yesterday, Wednesday, May 25, 2016, when I went to check on activity at the Logistics Park Kansas City intermodal center in Edgderton, Kan. Norfolk Southern No. 9475 was the leader on the ballast train resting on a run-around track on the north side of the facility.

While I was present, a couple of engine units were repositioned on one of the ramp tracks. I immediately changed photo angles.  The Citirail unit visible in Photo Three was No. 1323.

Here are two other shots of the two engine units being shuffled in the intermodal yard.

Do u have anymore info on the run around track the train is sitting on. It leads out into the green space, does it connect on the other end back into the facility? What kind of use will it have? Thx for the info
