Western Railroad Discussion > Some of the Weekend's Action On The BNSF Lakeside Sub

It was a warm day in Ritzville, WA on the BNSF Lakeside Sub with a high-low of 88-61. Temps in the 90's on the way. It was a fairly busy day with a couple of llulls in trains and myself. Had a neighbor's birthday party today. It was a mostly Orange weekend with a few exceptions. Here are some of the trains from today and a few from the last couple of days.

Nice stuff.  I would think all those GATX hoppers would make a good "train length" photo.

It’s great to see the continuing flow of red and silver across the Lakeside as well as the Grinstein motif......a relief from the rather constant “orange blur”. Excellent coverage Larry ...... keep it coming.
