Mr. MRL Date: 05/22/18 05:52 Re: seligman sub: they just keep getting bigger...... Author: Lackawanna484 That's an enormous amount of power.
Does BNSF have limits on train length? The company cut off one crew's start, across this whole start to finish. Posted from Android Date: 05/22/18 06:06 Re: seligman sub: they just keep getting bigger...... Author: goneon66 Lackawanna484 Wrote:
