Nothin' Fancy........BNSF Transcon
Author: mp208

We are at Heman interlocking near Belva, OK on a clear Friday morning (10-13-17) and 10 trains would pass in 2,5 hours. Four stackers, 3 manifest, and three worms. Here we see a grey worm eastbound at S P E E D and a brown worm westbound.

Very nice. Thanks for sharing. In your first video, someone leased a bunch of newer Trinity Industries' hoppers....a unit train from an elevator near you?

I'd say the first train of larger four drop CH's was grain products, like soybean meal, which are lighter than grain itself, especially wheat. The train was 100 cars, not the normal 112 cars? usually for grain trains on BNSF.
