Western Railroad Discussion > BNSF Local with Ten Units Meets Track Stabilizer

On Tuesday, I heard what sounded like the eastbound BNSF local approaching Agency, Iowa.  I didn't expect there to be ten locomotive on it though.  There were a couple BNSF Geeps, an SD60M, a couple ex-NS units, two HLCX engines, and three Dash 8s that look like they just came out of RELCO Locomotives at Albia with new remote control equipment.  As the train was going by, a track stabilizer backed down to this crossing before giving another go over the track going east.  This PTS-90 is at the tail end of a surfacing gang that itself is following the tie gang that went through here yesterday: https://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?1,4764249.
