All those empty steel gons, including NSAX National Steel, and shorty coil steel flats point to the H BARGAL1.  The many XLI insulated box cars full of California canned goods and wine and the DPUs make it the H BARGAL1 for sure- I'll bet the farm on that one and I know you would, too!

The intermodal Q train doesn't have any domestic containers other than white JB Hunt (maybe some Swift in there), which points to Q LACAUG6 or Q LACNYC6 bound for NS.  The Q LACAUG6 usually has less than 10 platforms of marine containers, so I'll go with the  Q LACNYC6.  Nice catch!

thanks for the q symbol possibilities mapboy, much appreciated.

speaking of monster trains, i just saw a HUGE e/b stack/ethanol mty combo this morning but was to busy to get it on video..........

Very cool video with two trains going the same speed looking stuck together. First train sure had lots of boxcars and nice to see a Warbonnet in the middle of the race,

Yes, great video and I like the effect of them going the same speed; very cool!

Andy

agree with Larry & Andy...
